Give Your Engine Bay a Cleaner, Tougher Look
The factory fabric shrouds tucked behind the fenders on a 2015 and up WRX or STI look tired fast and do little for the engine bay appearance. The GRMGRM096049 GrimmSpeed Fender Shroud replaces that factory piece with a single piece of lightweight CNC laser cut aluminum finished in a heavy duty black wrinkle powder coat. Every GRMGRM096049 shroud is laser etched with the GrimmSpeed logo and built for a direct, hassle free fit that instantly upgrades the look of the engine bay.
