Hey guys. Thanks for all the compliments and + feedback.

Since we are in the process of getting our vendorship on here, I will make this short and sweet.

Here are some pictures of the production-like version. This Engine Cover is in production now and should be ready to ship early August!










BTW...if any of you know who I should contact to speed up this vendorship process, please let me know. I've been waiting the past couple days and haven't heard back from anyone. Thanks, I greatly appreciate your help and support.

This guy makes great products, and he's awesome to deal with...
I've got a pile of his parts on my Forester. They all look and fit amazing, not to mention the level of detail and time that went into the finishing work on each piece.

Thumbsup for brad expanding out of the Subaru scene with this work of art!

do you know if this will fit with the ARC UIP? It looks like it sticks out a bit further on the side than factory.

It does stick out farther to the right, but is not taller than the stock cover.

The ARC UIP has that welded nameplate on it, but that piece angles up to allow clearance.

Yes, it will fit.

I was just talking with Brad over at Subtle Solutions and he says they're in production now and that they should be available to order within the next couple of weeks!

From my understanding, the EVO 8/9 cap is larger than the EVO X oil cap.

The HKS and ARC caps for the EVO X do not fit on the 8's and 9's and are smaller for the X. I'm pretty sure this cover fits over both of these.

Not that I know of. I do know that the cover was revised slightly for production. The clearance to the uicp was increased allowing fitment for the ARC, Cobb, Nisei and other aftermarket pipes.
