It has to do with the way the hood of that car is made, If you look at the underside underneath the flame retardant you will see the stability welds and ridges form that pattern. And since they stick down further than the rest of the hood they get hotter first before the rest of the hood absorbs the radiant heat from the engine.

I thought you were going to say that it wouldn't work on Saturdays. sweatdrop
That is pretty odd though! Kind of like the face of Jesus appearing on toast or something.

Way to kill the magic! scream Kidding, that's actually quite interesting and I didn't know about it.

Sorry, Sorry for the BuzzKill. I was just coming up with random scientific sounding gibberish to cover the fact that the Mechanical Ley Lines reinforcing the Magical Integrity of your Spacial Impetus Facilitator were bleeding off excess energy into the 4rth dimension so that the Penumbra didn't overwhelm the defenses of your Gerbil Train. And that's the real reason your hood looks like that.

Everyone has given very good explanations, which are almost assuredly the correct ones. However, if it turns out that your car is Jewish after all (I guess you could check to see if there's a little nick in the tailpipe?), you might want to get it one of these.
