I think he meant more like the mustang's scoop. They have a little depression .. that sort of channels air to the "scoop" (although i think the mustang's scoop is non-functional.)

I believe he means the surrounding area of the hood scoop... l It looks like it's just plopped on there... no filling etc.

for the fourth time, I mean the space between the edge of the scoop and the hood itself... here I traced it in red for you...

Exactly what HondaTech627 is saying. The scoop is made to be easily interchangable (between WRX, STi, and aftermarket). If it were molded, you couldn't do that. I think it looks fine, unless you want to get into the nitty-gritty. Then again, if you want to comment on the looks of the WRX, I can think of alot of other things to bash on it (cough*bug-eyed headlights*cough).
