You can try taping all the seams of the bodywork on the front of the car with duct tape. See if the noise goes away, and if it does, remove one piece of tape at a time until the noise comes back. Viola! You've found the culprit (hopefully).

The nice thing is that it is cheap to try that, tape is cheap. If it doesn't work, then you aren't out too much.
