FYI your hood is not metal though.

RE: hoodscoop on black cars

I'll have to take a close look. It's not something I've noticed.

Nope, mine seems to be the same color too - I will take a look to be sure after work.

so the hoodscoop on my car looks like a lighter shade of black then my regular shade of paint my hood...is that normal lol?

Someone didn't wax it correctly.
Most likely they let the wax dry/bake in the sun and that's what causes the haze.
The scoop seems very sensative to this for some reason and it is noticeable most on black cars.
There are products that remove wax, you might want to try that.
