--Forscan can turn off the fake engine noise. I did, but honestly don't know if I ever noticed it or not for obvious reasons.
--I just added the GearShade box with 8"square Kicker and 500.1, and it definitely made a difference from my stock 7 speaker (non B&O) system. Will you win speaker...
Finally done! I've got the Kicker 200.4 bi-amped in the front, meaning that the 200.4 is powering only the two dash and two kick-panel speakers. They are Alpine 4" coaxials and Memphis 6.5" in the kick panels.
The rear pods were replaced with Mabett 6.75" pods and Memphis 6.75" coaxials...
I saw someone on this forum going for the Heritage look with their 2 door. They had their top painted in Raptor Liner, with a painter that knew how to reduce the textured look. I'd honestly consider hitting it with Raptor Liner--by a pro or in your back yard, based on your budget.
They seem to have variable pricing based on inventory, etc.
For example, I bought two almost identical plastic clips for the interior. One was .90 and the other was $4.00. I misplaced a rear D-ring for the rear floor; $54 to replace just the bolt! Ridiculous. They have an anti-customer...
Yeah, I wouldn't worry too much about it, especially if your options (customer is in Portugal) are limited. There's even a chance that your "U.S. made" skid plate was made with China plate. Go to your local metal supply shop and you'll see that most of the material is Indian, Chinese...

I would consider looking at Alibaba for an aluminum set of skid plates that can be sent direct. They'll be less expensive, because "China," and also because of the material.
I installed this skid first because protecting the plastic gas tank is...
This, coming from a Bronco owner?! :) :) :)
That said, I'm REALLY HAPPY that the Bronco was not designed by committee, that the quirks were left, and that the ethos of the original truck was--in my mind--captured.
All in, the Tesla's a "forever vehicle" that won't rust, is bulletproof, has rear steering, and will drive you to the hospital if you happen to have a heart attack. NONE of the other cookie-cutter cars in this list have ANY of those features.
Yes, it's possible for an old dude with a bad back to install the stock (HEAVY) steel gas tank skid plate on his car without the need for a lift. Only a little help with the floor jack. I added some Raptor lining to the plate for a little extra protection.
Feeling more capable now....me, and...
My friend Torsten has picked up a new hobby....leather working! I asked him to make me something to hold my insurance and registration papers for my new Heritage Robin's Egg Blue Bronco. He said "I'll make you something, but let me figure out the design."
I think it turned out pretty good...
