Totally get it. I don't love the look either but after installing flaps I don't hate them as much as I thought I would. Regardless I think the ZRoadz are a good choice!
Don't have pics as I'm not near my bronco. I will say that the skinnier portion on the front half does a good job of catching most rocks but I also avoided gravel until I got my flaps installed. With the flaps I haven't had any issues. Definitely hear rocks pinging off the back of the steps...
Sorry y'all. Day got away from me after I got home from work. Here's how mine is setup:
I keep wondering if I missed some pins in the lower half setup there, but otherwise this works like a charm. No issues. SAS suspension with 35s. Hope this helps.
Yeah this thread may have pushed me over the edge as well.
As for what I've already installed, I'd say pocket lights so far but I'm just getting started.
Definitely understand not wanting to throw perfectly good parts away. I've still got my original headlights from my F-150 sitting on the corner of my workbench. I know I should move them, but can't bring myself to do it for those... Everything else from my last three vehicles though I've either...
It's on the list. The handy carrying case is nice too since I split time between my Bronco and my F-150. Does it handle doing all four at once pretty well?
Yeah my garage clears the top of the Bronco with a few inches to spare, but I just built the garage within the last 6-7 years. I'm sure it's a tight fit on older construction.
Following. I'm still torn on what to buy. I don't off road a ton, but want something that works well enough to air up 4 tires at once if possible. The dual ARB solution looks nice but seems like overkill for my needs.
Thanks! Icon compression in titanium. 17x8.5 w/0 offset. Was planning on painting the bolts along the rim, but after seeing them on the Bronco I'm leaving them as is.
It's totally out of control... But people around here eat it up. If it makes the state money that I don't have to pay I guess it's a good thing. These are just the college plates available.

First of all, GO BUCKS!!!
Definitely stealing this idea. Love it.
VA has a ton of personalization options for plates. It's borderline ridiculous. Think we have the most personalized plates out of all the states.
Rekgen XLs on mine. Do I love the way they look? Not at all. Do they keep shit from dinging off my paint? Yes they do. I had to get all four for my OCD. No idea yet what I'm gonna do when I replace the back bumper.
When I had mine in for yearly detailing, I had my ceramic guy remove some of the coating, install the badges, then re-coat the area. Also removed the coating where we installed the hood deflector. I'm willing to bet that in most cases there'll be no issue, but I want them to stick forever so...
Method for sure between those two. If you're doing that much offroading I'd check out the Method Bead Grip options. Here's a link to the 703s:
