STP S10590XL now a Purolator?

[Johnny248]

I posted a little while back this same number and they were Champ. This batch appear to be Purolator. Also, the finish on these entire batch looks terrible.

actually looks to be a fram based filter. the ADBV and baseplate give it away. can you show what the bypass valve looks like?

99% sure its a fram/champs collaboration. fram baseplate, adbv and bypass.

Definitely FRAM/FIRST BRANDS made. Purolators don’t look like that at all

I guess it has been a minute since I've used a Purolator. I just went and looked at a Purolator and M1 filter, and they have metal bypass.

Fram/Champ as others have stated. It's not a Purolator.

Louvers actually look good for once for a Fram/Champ...

The STP XL line filters I've looked at were all made in China (looking like Premium Guard made), but maybe some models are made other places. Filter wack-a-mole is the new game these days. Who makes what changes constantly, especially for the brands exclusive to auto parts stores.
