  • The Passion Behind the Brand

    Accentrek Designs stands out from the average vinyl business. How?

    Deeply rooted in the community, and as a member herself, Jenn actively collaborates with the Subaru community by involving members in various steps of the design and creative process. Whether that be in the form of feedback, suggestions, and/or product testing, community members like YOU are essential! Accentrek Designs’ goal, first and foremost, is to provide high-quality, unique ways to accentuate your Subaru.

  • High-Quality Vinyl and Tint

    All vinyl and tint used is outdoor-rated and automotive grade. When properly applied they have an outdoor life of up to 6 years. These high-quality materials also come in numerous colors and finishes for you to choose from. So whatever adventure you’re on, you can count on your overlays to last.

  • Hand-Tested and Custom-Fit

    Specifically and precisely tailored for your specific Subaru’s model, these overlays give you the professional look without the price tag. Prior to being available to the public, every model’s overlays are tested for proper fitment by a handful of product testers who are Subaru owners just like you.

  • Professionally Designed

    Set yourself apart with custom, one-of-kind designs crafted by a professional graphic designer. The owner Jenn is a passionate, full-time graphic designer with over 10 years of experience. Every custom design includes a proof and unlimited revisions to ensure it’s exactly what you want.

The Products

The goal of this small vinyl business, is to bring fun, relatable designs to the Subaru community. This means universal decals or custom-fit overlays that not only reflect your personality and outdoor lifestyle, but withstand your adventures as well.

The Story

 

As Accentrek Designs gained a following on Instagram, the Subaru community began reaching out asking for product lines for many of the other popular Subaru models. So amidst Covid-19, she came up with a plan to make it happen. Jenn worked virtually with numerous community members across the US to help make these products a realization. This amazing team of product testers hand-tested overlays on their personal vehicles, giving feedback and suggestions to help ensure the product was perfect prior to reaching you. In essence, Accentrek Designs was made for the community by the community. This is the passion that lies behind the brand, actions, quality, and designs.

 

In 2020, as Jenn worked on planning her Crosstrek build, she realized there weren't a whole lot of unique options available. Two weeks after taking ownership of her Crosstrek, she began developing her own designs in the form of overlays and decals. What started as a simple, personal hobby turned into something much more.

Just as the popularity of the Crosstrek has grown, so has the demand for custom-fit products. With positive feedback and support from the Crosstrek community, Jenn launched Accentrek Designs via Etsy in May 2020. The intention at the time was to create vinyl products solely for 2018+ Crosstreks, as they could be tested on her personal vehicle to ensure they met her high standards.
