Default Bonnet water seal?

Noticed on my jdm classic this weekend that compared to krisyb's P1 my bonnet to grille seal is short or is missing in the middle? Don't know if its a jdm thing or it is generally missing as the holes for the centre section are there?What do you guys have on the uk cars or if there's anybody on here with a jdm classic that can confirm this is right.
Either way I want the middle part to stop dust and water getting in.


I wonder if its an STI thing??

Thanks for the reply Steve. Wonder if it was left off for air flow and cooling reasons?

my old pre-facelift WRX bonnet was the same. Maybe they just wanted to stop water going over the headlamp and on to the wiring for the headlamp.
