Subtle Solutions Alternator Cover Subaru WRX 02-14 / STI 04-21 - Red | ENG-1000-RED

Enhance your engine bay's look with the Subtle Solutions Alternator Cover. This cover is a direct replacement for the plain, plastic factory cover. It's designed for multiple Subaru models, including the 2002 - 2014 WRX, 2004 - 2021 STI, 2005 - 2009 Legacy GT (with OEM STI bracket only), 2004 - 2013 Forester XT (09 - 13 with OEM STI bracket only), and 2005 - 2009 Outback XT. Note that it won't fit the 2011 - 2013 FB25 non - turbo motor. Key features include a striking red color, CAD - designed for perfect fit, CNC pressed and laser - cut for precision, made of 304 stainless steel for durability, anodized (black) aluminum standoffs and washers, and it comes with install hardware (bolts/washers). It's proudly made in the USA and has a powder - coated finish for corrosion protection.

Using your Subtle Solutions Alternator Cover is a great way to upgrade your car's engine bay. First, make sure your vehicle is one of the compatible models like the Subaru WRX from 2002 - 2014 or STI from 2004 - 2021. If your car requires the Subaru OEM STI Power Steering Belt Cover Bracket, you can buy it separately. Before installing the hardware that comes with the alternator cover, remove the rubber bushing on the bracket. Install the tall spacer with the bolt and washer through the stock Subaru oem bracket on the passenger - side power steering pump. On the alternator (driver side), use the Subaru OEM STI bracket to install the shorter spacer and hardware with the clip nut. As for maintenance, since it's made of 304 stainless steel and has a powder - coated finish, regular cleaning with a mild car cleaner will keep it looking great and protected against corrosion. Just remember, this cover won't fit the 2011 - 2013 FB25 non - turbo motor, so double - check your vehicle model before installation.
