This is one of a bunch of storefronts put together by a company called revolutionparts.com. They're a third-party intermediary that has contracts with a bunch of Subaru dealers across the country to market parts -- as I understand it, Revolution Parts doesn't have their own inventory, but they just forward your order to a client Subaru dealer for fulfillment, putting their name on the invoicing and keeping a cut of the revenue. It's not a business model I'd feel good about, because you don't really know whose inventory your parts are coming from, and that raises the possibility of customer service issues.

There are plenty of Subaru dealers who sell parts online at a discount and are straightforward enough to have their own branding, and I'd stick with one of those.
