If I may ask, why do you miss your Badlands? It's a 2dr thing?

I couldn't since I live overseas, otherwise I would've complained.

I have the Ford Performance Method 703. They are flush with the Sasquatch fender flares. But the TPMS valves received with the wheels were defective... Other than that I like them.

Jegs Performance. Shipping was fast and almost cheap considering the dimensions.

After two months of ownership, I’d say I mostly miss memory seats and rear ventilation, although the latter has been addressed in the latest models. My biggest complaints are that the 360 camera doesn’t automatically activate when maneuvering forward, and that the headlights take way too long...

Just installed the B & C Bow Brace kit. It reduced and eliminated a lot of squeaks and rattles. If you are undecided: go for it!

Well done! I’m from Ticino, basically the other end of Switzerland. I’ve wanted a Bronco since 2020, but Ford definitely took its time to officially bring them here. Still, I’m super happy it finally happened. Here’s my build journal, with a list of my mods and also some resources to help...

What rack is this?

Reviving the thread with my stealth ppf'd Shadow Black Badlands 4dr. It would look so much better with a painted hard top 🥲

Took the top off for the first time today ☀️ Love the open air feeling, taking the top off is not too much trouble, unfortunately the roof rack is a bit of a pain... Also installed the B+C Bow Brace kit from Ford Performance today.

Here it is. Full xpel Stealth PPF (using pre-cut kit) and grille painted matte shadow black. Rear Bronco and Ford emblem substituted with black variant. PPF job was around 4'500$ (USD). It's my first PPF, time will tell if it was a good choice. For now... happy wife happy life :)

Small update: the Bronco is now at the body shop for a full Stealth PPF (xpel). We are also considering repainting the grille while it’s there. Still deciding between keeping the original color or going for something darker (Dark Grey similar to fender flares or black) to better match the matte...

I'm on 39 PSI (onroad) and with the lightest foot. Also doing 110-120 max on highways. Also on ECO mode. Soon I'll get tired of looking at the consumption and things will get worse

Went on the first real trip with the Bronco. First stop was the Champagne region in France, where we drove through the vineyards around Montagne de Reims. Very easy trails, but really panoramic. After that, we spent 8 days in northern France, in Normandy, between beautiful beach sunsets...

I just checked and Yes, I have the rear bumper with rear fog light. It seems made of (very thin) steel.
