APR Carbon Fiber Heat Shields
Subaru WRX Hatchback 2011-2014 / STI Hatchback 2008-2014
Features & Product Details
Has your exhaust melted off the paint or warped your stock bumper? The APR Carbon Fiber Rear Bumper Heat Shield will hide and protect your rear bumper from getting burnt up. Unlike other exhaust heat shields for the WRX, the APR shield is made of vacuumed formed dry carbon fiber which allows for perfect factory fitment. Coated with a heat resistant epoxy coating, the heat shield will reduce fading effects from UV rays and hot exhaust fumes.

I got these to replace my stock STi finishers which are a thin aluminum and have some carbon stains I can't get out. I haven't installed these yet so this review is only based on visual build quality. I am disappointed with two things on the set I got: - There are too many small pits and bulges in the overall finish, more noticeable in direct sunlight. - The edge cleanup, specifically the edges which touch the car, are far from uniform. Short, but somewhat wide gaps show up on the test fit. Extra sanding to the back of mine will be required for a clean mate to the bumper. Comparing to the STi parts, it's nice to not have the screws fasten to the back of the unit making the finished look much cleaner. The downside, you need to remove, or at least lower your muffler as the screws attach deeper down the finishers. I might have gotten unlucky with my set, but if not, then the QC level needs to come up a bit to meet the price point.

So I got these from RSD and read some reviews that said you had to drill new holes for these and i don't like the liability factor of messing up my car. I thought it might be smart to take it down to my local subaru dealership and have them install them so any liability would be on them. It worked out quite well and it only costed $20.00 to install them at the dealership. In the end the service manager at subaru said he liked these a lot better than the heat shields they offer. Great produt!

I have those silver exhaust finishers on my 2011 STI hatch. Will these APR shields match up to the specs of the subaru shields (cover any drill holes)?

A: We have not tested these with the N1 exhaust however, they should work and in the case that it makes contact, we have extended hangers to compensate.

A: We currently run these with the Q300 on our STI shop car. Longer hangers should not be required, but many people will opt for longer hangers instead of adjusting the exhaust at the pivot points.
