As for the white flares, you do you. I'm not changing anything on my Red 2 door. Not for now at least. I like the way the black bumpers, steps, flares, door handles and mirrors balance the red and white. If I ever did any painting at some point though it would be body color.

Another great looking 2-Door! Nice job.

All of the Fender Flares can be prepped and painted. I prefer the Body Color over the white Fender Flares.

AMP Steps included.

Thanks!

A couple trips to the Body Shop and she is done. Flares are prepped smooth then painted.

I don't like white fender flares, looks too much like an after thought.

I have restored many early Broncos as well and also have the flares painted body color.

Now. How about the Grill? Are you going to paint that too?

White Center with Red Surround for yours.

I have the same Heritage Grill painted below.

What are you talking about? The grill is already white on that one.

I like the white flares and think that it looks better than how Ford built it.

A Heritage Bronco is a look back to the Original First Gen Broncos. I think Ford missed it with just the White Grill without the body color around the sides as the original.

Okay, you're talking about adding a tiny bit of red around the edges. I don't see how that would look better. You're not going to get a modern Bronco to exactly match the original.

In any case, thanks for the clarification.

You are correct. It is hard to get a new Bronco to look like and old one. But you can get close.
