Dress Up Bolts just released their new March products and they did not disappoint. In total, they just added 11 new titanium hardware kits to their catalog, with most of them developed for the Subaru Impreza GC8 platform. Owners of the 2004-2007 STI also got a nice interior kit to replace the hardware surrounding their manual shifter. And finally, all the rare JDM parts collectors out there that have the coveted ARC oil cap can now upgrade and refresh their hardware with Dress Up Bolts titanium hardware kit specifically designed for the oil cap.
As mentioned, GC8 owners got the most attention for this release with 7 kits specifically developed for the platform. Here is the list of kits available:
