I looked up that hood and according to the company, it does not fit the Raptor. What exactly did you have to do in order to get it to fit and does seem trouble free or is loose?

I went from a Badlands to the Raptor. The Raptor is a very different animal in good way. In my case it is a daily driver and the coolest vehicle I have ever owned. It actually has a very good turning radius and although I don't feel the need for retro fitting it with the camera style rear view...

where did you get the CH hood?

Spot on sir! To not do the locales that you mentioned or not go rip-roaring through vast areas this country has to offer (or perhaps jump this monster vehicle at least once) is to waste the very best of what Detroit has to offer. It will be a long time before we see a show room ready vehicle...

But you can't put those fender flares on the minivan. What were you thinking!?!?

Gotta love these polls. I remember back in the early days of the 2021 release when this site was a virtual love fest where everyone was positive and excited and complimented/congratulated each other regardless of trim level. :-))

Either Bronco or by his name, Scout.

Wait just a minute there mister! Are you implying that you might have to chew off one of those fender flares to esape the next morning?

Especially considering it is covered by factory warranty.

The color matched fender flares were not available when I got my Raptor or I would have opted for them (not that they are the perfect answer for the flares). As previously mentioned, there are several aftermarket options in fiberglass that although pricy are very nice. There are also carbon...

Not sure how you plan to use your Raptor, but the combination of gold wheels to a green vehicle is beautiful. I hope that you can keep them looking that good.

The fake side vents certainly bolster the assumption that the vehicle is attempting to replicate a Raptor.

And the best part is they don't even illuminate on the Raptor during normal daytime driving.

Another victim of failure to thoroughly examine, kick tires, test drive and generally research a new vehicle. Gonna lose some money on the sale. shame.

Or just buy the Raptor in the first place with its great ride quality, offroad chops and factory warranty.
