is it a stock bonnet? My aftermrkt one has done that in the past, sometimes doesn\'t fling it but I\'ve cheated and used the body pins ive got to drag it to the "clicked position"
dunno if you could get something under there without making a mess?
have you ever had it open?
otherwise just press down on the centre till it clicks back and try again :)
