The FA24 engine bay benefits from the visual upgrade. The OEM plastic cover is functional but visually unremarkable, and the HKS dry carbon cover gives the engine bay the quality of material that the rest of the build deserves. Dry carbon construction also provides better thermal isolation than plastic, keeping engine bay heat away from components above the cover.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"clear: both;\"\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0743\/4122\/0668\/files\/650dc2577e815326094a763b25793470.jpg?v=1772084606\" alt=\"HKS Dry Carbon Engine Cover - 2022-2024 Subaru BRZ \/ Toyota GR86\" style=\"float: right; width: 40%; max-width: 300px; height: auto; margin: 0 0 16px 20px;\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSpecs \u0026amp; Highlights\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDry carbon fiber construction\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLightweight versus OEM plastic\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBetter thermal isolation than plastic\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDirect OEM replacement\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFitment: 2022-2024 Subaru BRZ \/ Toyota GR86\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e2mm Pre-Preg CF, 0.6 kg vs 1.4 kg OEM\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe dry carbon engine cover for the 2022+ platform is manufactured at 2mm nominal thickness using 2×2 twill pre-preg CF. Weight is approximately 0.6 kg versus the OEM plastic cover at approximately 1.4 kg. The carbon fiber thermal conductivity is approximately 5–10 W\/(m·K) depending on layup orientation, compared to ABS plastic at approximately 0.17 W\/(m·K), the carbon cover conducts less heat than plastic in the through-thickness direction, but the main thermal benefit is the lower thermal mass, which means the cover reaches equilibrium with engine bay temperature faster and does not retain heat as long as plastic after engine shutdown.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThermal Properties of Dry Carbon vs Plastic\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe FA24 is a capable engine and the HKS dry carbon cover is the appropriate visual treatment for a platform being taken seriously. The dry carbon weave is visible and consistent, and the fitment is specific to the 2022+ GR86 and BRZ engine bay geometry. No modification to the engine or cover mounting required.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"clear: both;\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e2022+ Application Only — Separate Part for FA20\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis is the GR86\/BRZ application.

It is visible every time the hood is open and makes the FA24 engine bay look intentional. Quick install, correct fitment, genuine carbon construction. The 0.6 kg versus 1.4 kg weight saving is meaningful on a platform where HKS and the factory both obsess over mass — the GR86 uses aluminum and resin body panels partly for this reason. A dry carbon engine cover is a small number in isolation but part of a collection of small numbers that HKS's carbon accessories program deliberately assembles.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"clear: both;\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"HKS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52621264814360,"sku":"HKS70026-AT008","price":115.5,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0998\/4514\/4856\/files\/7337wa4lbyek_c83dbd0d-4292-4192-b000-7fb86ab60f34.jpg?v=1788747637","url":"https:\/\/driveforges.com\/products\/hks-dry-carbon-engine-cover-2022-2024-subaru-brz-toyota-gr86-3rgjkp","provider":"Drive Forge","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
