Subaru Genuine STi Logo Door Handle Cup Protector Set of 4 - J1210VA500 for Outback WRX STI Forester Legacy

These cup protectors are worth the money IMHO. I have tried the cheap and thin cup protectors on my other vehicle. All were hard to get on straight and smooth and ended up yellowing and fraying on the outside edges. These go on easily, give a little room for repositioning, are thick and durable, and look great. I wish they made these for my Truck!

Despite finding these through Subaru parts suppliers for as much as $15 less, I opted for the convenience of buying through Amazon in order to get one day delivery and quick and easy return if the product wasn’t what I was looking for. So these door cup guards are a great option over getting vinyl decal type guards adding in a little STI flair. For the 2019-23 forester they are a tight fit. At first I thought they would not fit. I decided to give it a try so I peeled off the protective film on the outer side and folded back the adhesive film at the midpoint so I could fit the sticky side down and still be able to adjust the position as needed. This worked out well. I inserted the guard from the top of the door handle while barely pulling back on the handle to give a little adjustment room. Once positioned I removed the adhesive backing completely and pressed firmly on all areas of the guard to insure adhesion. Overall I think these guards are great to protect against scratches and for covering up preexisting scratches. The material is a thicker molded vinyl with a carbon fiber texture. My only question is whether they are gray or navy in color. On my black forester they have the appearance of a navy blue. Maybe it’s just my eyes. I do recommend these for anyone looking.

Love these. Love the idea and Love the Look when installed. Excellent way to protect the paint on your car from nail scratches and scuffs. Fits Perfectly. I purchased for my 2025 Outback Onyx.

Ordered these hand guards because my car is pretty scratched up. I've installed them for a year and I love them. They look nice and protects my car from more scratches. They look and feel like quality. Will recommend.

Feels like high quality material, very easy to install.

I was unaware if this is an OEM product. I assumed it was not because it’s cheaper than the OEM website. Even then you could not tell the difference. Kept the vehicle from getting scratched by fingernails as people open the door. Added a great looked to the door as well. Fit perfectly, just be careful when and how you set it if you’re picky like me. Very impressed.

I bought the OEM Subaru STI logo door handle cup protector set of four for my Outback Wilderness. The price was about $75 (and has gone up recently), which feels a little expensive for what it is. That said, the product looks great — I have a silver Outback with black cladding, and the black protectors give it a nice contrasting look that really complements the car. Installation takes patience. Once the adhesive sticks, it’s very hard to reposition, so you have to be careful not to scratch your paint. I had to fix two of mine because of bubbles, and while I managed to smooth them out, it was a bit of a hassle. On the positive side, the adhesive holds very well once it’s in place. Overall, it’s a solid accessory that enhances the look of the car, but the cost is on the higher side and installation can be tricky.

Nice thick stickers. Obviously clean the area well and then I put in place and form fitted it by pushing it into the space BEFORE taking off the taped back. There is also a plastic sheet on the front. Then take off the taped back and carefully maneuver it into the space. Think about placement and how you want them, centered, high, or low, because there is no template to help with that because once these are on, there on. They were really easy to apply and of high quality. But, again, be careful on the placement and the, probably, top leading edge that will be placed first and how far down from the top edge of the handle indentation you go, 1/4 inch, 3/8 inch, whatever it is just try and be consistent with all four. Recommended!

Fit and providing a good protection Seems to stay in place so far

Once installed properly, my family SUV which have a 10s 0-60Km/h feels instantly like Colin Mcrae's WRX...... a bit more than before.

The quality is really good! The carbon fiber texture does feel great. Easy to install too. And I do like the look on my car.

These are a bit pricey but after trying to install other vinyl door cup protectors these are definitely worth the money. I really like the way they look on my car plus you can't go wrong with more JDM stuff.

Subaru paint is terrible, - it scratches so easily. This really helps protect - and looks great on my car (I have the plasma yellow crosstrek). No regrets :) Thank you
