Their stuff does seem well made, but of questionable taste. But thatās the market, as you said.
The most hideous part of most of their builds is the wheel&tire choice. Those 5-spoke 22ā wheels look ridiculous, but are their signature design, so they put them on everything. Checking their...
Nice work!
I also made my own OWL. It looked great, but unfortunately it didnāt last too long. After a few off-road trips driving at lower tire pressure, I think the sidewall flex accelerated the paint wearing off, and I didnāt try to maintain it.
This appears to be the same crossbar as in their Roof Molle Panel kit, just without the front molle panel

so the power wiring goes to a fuse tap in the interior fuse box.
I donāt think the puddle lamps will just work. if your Bronco did not come with the option, then you are probably missing the wires to connect them, and you would have to enable the feature in the software using FORScan. Otherwise, you would need to run new wires like from an Aux switch.
The...
If you live in or travel to rural areas, supplemental lights can be useful as well as add personalized look. Do you have any hobbies that you use your vehicle for like hunting, fishing, camping,ā¦ā¦or spelunking?
The Batman and James Bond films may spark some ideas. ;)
The bright polished wheels with the fine 16 spokes looks too fancy - more like Lincoln than Ford. I like some polished wheels on the Bronco but only if the wheel design is more chunky like MT Canyon.
Maybe add some color to all the black&white, like a copper bronze? Sorta tie into the amber...
Rivian did the 12-mile section of the Rubicon from Loon Lake to Tahoma staging area with their R1S EV. Took 3 days and the battery went from 80% to 10%. I dunno if other EVs have, or attempted the full 22 miles.

Yeah...
According to this listing (https://carsandbids.com/auctions/3zPYvDyA/2022-ford-bronco-black-diamond) itās got a Rough Country 2-inch lift kit with Toyo M/T 35āx12.5ā tires on Mickey Thompson Classic III 17āx9ā wheels with -12mm offset (Sasquatch wheels are +30mm offset).
Looks like it would...
Mine is a 1999 M coupe (Z3) so it very analog. It sorta has power locks, but there is no button, just the plunger on the top corner of the doors. Press the driver one down and both doors lock. To unlock, pull the door handle.
As a 2-door Bronco owner, the mod I want to do is swap in the...
My other car, a BMW 2-door iāve own for 25 years, also happens to have the window controls on the center console. So my muscle memory is the center console. So itās not just the Bronco.
itās sorta funny, back in 2021 when MAP photos were being leaked, there was a thread with early pics of black painted MOD tops. Reactions seemed to be mostly āuh, Iām sticking with the MIC topā.

For durability reasons, since I keep vehicles a long time, I would definitely choose the painted top, but I agree the MIC top looks much better. The MIC matches the fender flares, cowl+mirror and bumper, while the glossy shadow black painted top doesnāt match anything. It looks out of place...
No need to air down except for comfort. Itās not a technical trail - really itās just a dirt road but if you donāt like heights it can be unnerving due to tight switchbacks and huge drop offs. Spectacular views.
Different states may be different, as you say. In California, fee or no fee, DMV will not provide anyone the name and address associated with a license plate without legal justification.
