I have a 03 wrx and when driving i notice that the bonnet lifts slightly as i drive above 60. Catch is ok. Is this normal for a scooby if so i assume the alluminium bonnet and air intake has something to do with it

Have picked up a few tiny stone chips on bonnet but nothing too serious. I wonder if being a bit more curved makes it less susceptible? (however that's spelt)

It's the scoop that catches the air - makes to alloy bonnet flex - notice it on the MY02 as well (usually at an indicated 80 which, as we all know, is really only 72....)
