Had my wheels powder coated a couple of weeks back and they look great but the tired, dented and scratched Subaru logo centre caps were letting the side down.

Having seen the price of new ones, I decided to buy some STi centre cap gel badges and disguise the original centre caps instead - very happy with the result TBH, and they seem good quality though of course time will tell how long they last.

Got them from here, 60mm size for FSTi wheels: Subaru STI Wheel Centre Gel Badge Set

It appears in the parts diagrams that there is an actual STi centre cap for these wheels but I haven't been able to track them down anywhere yet.

The only Subaru model to get the OEM 28111SA081 wheels was the Forester STI.
The only S11 JDM model Forester to get the OEM 28821SA060/61 STI centre caps was the Cross Sport.

A faux carbon weave black finish?

In the US they were fitted to the 06/07 Forester Sport


Although some websites list them for the 06/07 Impreza WRX STI Forester ??
No idea if these centre caps will fit the STI wheels.

No UK/EU Imprezas got STI caps

Not sure if the 08> WRXSTI caps (28821FE140/141) would fit as they appear to be 55mm dia

Thanks Don,

That's reallly helpful, at least I have a part number to work on now. Difficult to find anyone showing the diameter though.

I have the 55mm center caps (28821FE140/141) on my Legacy's STi wheels, tried one on the Forester but too small, they definitely need to be 60mm.

@ PacoJones I measured and took a chance and ordered them from Japanparts.com and received them today.
1. Japanparts Number : 1005G-017-040
Parts Name : ENKEI WHEEL CENTER CAP
Parts Maker : STI

They fit pretty snugly , but if there are crooks out there they might try to steal them as you can pry them off if you try. Here's a pic of them on my wheel with packaging and sku number along with pics of wheels on the car from afar. Next subtle mods are Bilstein struts and STI pinks for OEM plus feel
