Sweet! So does it just look like a larger vent piece cover just slapped over the stock fender garnish? Is it plastic or aluminum?

Damn. Mine says "Out For Delivery" since 7am today... Still waiting.

Pretty sure it's plastic and you would have to take off the stock vent for this. It's a part replacement.

beautiful

Edit! Mine were also delivered today. I am unfortunately not home to show off the beauty. I have a few more months before I lay eyes upon them but they were be cozy in the apartment along with the other parts waiting for me.

Thanks. I knew it was a replacement, but some were curious if it was just an overlay like the chrome trim piece or somehow integrated as one piece with the fender garnish.

Sorry, I got a little too excited after seeing that picture lol.

Edit: just got them. They are in fact two pieces.

As suspected. Thanks for confirming! Doesn't sway me either way, it's a must-have for anyone collecting anything from STI. Congrats!

I hate that it's a stuck on piece, and not a full molded garnish. There are far too many dummies out there that will just pull that off.

Looks amazing though!

I thought that about my STI valve stem caps, but so far they're intact still after almost 6 months of ownership!

Same thing with the TRD piece:

Honestly, with these things it's hard to put on parts and think it won't get damaged or stolen. But with many things (up to and including car ownership), it's just a matter of you being okay with mods.

Such is life. If stuff gets stolen or damaged, either I insure it or I don't pay to have the extra parts insured. Either way I live with it.

Hmmm...so it looks like it's just an overlay like the chrome trim with a screw to help secure it better.

I wish they would just sell that piece separately cause I'm poor.
