I owned a '92 525i which had to same problem (it doesn't have option where the wipers reside/sink below the hood though). I was told the bearings of the wiperarms were worn so that one of the wipers will touch the hood; their fix was to let the wiper stop somewhat higher at the windshield - some fix!Maybe the same thing applies to the 8-series. So replacing might do the trick.
