more than likely a cracked hood...at some point, due to the stress being placed on that one single spot. I've seen it happen on several other cars, so would advise against it personally

Hood scoops aren't functional. Rear facing vents allow for a flow of air from the front of the engine bay, to the rear. Forward facing vents don't have an escape for the air.. all of the openings are in one direction.
Try taking a can of coke, and turn it upside down, then take a knife and poke a hole in the bottom. Now turn it upside down. The coke will come out 3x faster...

Seems like many interested. Let do a GB on this. This will be direct made in Japan. Top quality. I'll contact Japan vendor on this and do a GB for you guy. Okay?
