Construction & Design

Crafted from premium stainless steel, the APS Upper Rivet Grille is built to withstand harsh weather conditions and resist rust and corrosion over time. The black finish is applied with precision to ensure long-lasting color retention and an attractive matte appearance. The rivet-style design not only enhances the grille’s visual appeal but also reinforces its structural integrity, making it tough enough for off-road adventures while maintaining a refined look for daily driving.

The grille’s design balances form and function, allowing optimal airflow through its open mesh pattern while providing a protective barrier against rocks, dirt, and other debris. This thoughtful engineering ensures your Jeep’s engine stays cooler under demanding conditions without sacrificing style.

APS (often known in the Subaru community as Air Power Systems) is a legacy performance brand recognized for turbo and intercooler hardware used on high-output Subaru builds.
