They plan on making any other variations? Perhaps something with vents?

Vents would look wicked, imo.

The OP did say that one version is being made so that it directs air down to the intake. Not quite so much of a poser mod if this is how it works.

Nix the scoop and go for vents like the 22B.

I think that they were going for the standard Subie look; considering how many of their models have hood scoops stock, but don't quote me on that.

Hmm.... Not bad.

My issue is that the lines don't match that of the front bumper cover... The ones that go around the emblem....

You know what that means? I gotta replace the front cover too, lol.... Otherwise the feng shui is totaly off!!
