Expert Reply:
Both the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # CU64FR and Draw-Tite Max-Frame Trailer Hitch Receiver # 76182 are going sit virtually flush with the rear bumper on your 2018 Subaru Forester. If I had to give one the slightest edge it would be the Draw-Tite.
The EcoHitch Hidden Trailer Hitch Receiver # 306-X7216 does appear to fit the closest to the bumper of all the class III 2" receivers that are hidden in the bumper, for your Forester.
