    the silver one shows it the best. if you look at the squirters and follow a line straight back to the back left side of the scoop, you'll notice a small "bump" as the scoop blends into the hood, the best way to see it is to look at the reflections of the clouds. I'm on my iphone so can't really edit the pictures.

    i circled where they are in the pic below. they arent too noticeable in this pic, but can easily be seen from the drivers seat.
