It's a spare bonnet I have for my 3door. It came on it. Just looked too good to be cut out by someone. Maybe it's off a later bonnet or something because all the holes line up too for clipping it to the back of the bonnet. I checked the holes with my other bonnet to make sure they haven't been drilled in

I have had a couple of white 3drs and the paint has always crazed above the turbo to a degree, but always on the outside never inside for some reason
