Hey Bronco community, just recently picked up a '25 white 4-door bronco badlands and did a 600 mile roundtrip. We ended up at the beach and spent a few days Beach'n with the Bronco and thoroughly love the experience. I've got Rough Country power steps to allow for more clearance on offroad adventures. Earned a few rock chips on the bottom rockers and lower parts of the doors. What are some solutions folks have to mitigate rock chips? I'm considering the Ford Bronco accessory, https://www.ford.com/product/body-a...naDTFA_iCeVyw8gdQ7DsxekpxYufF1WRoCu2QQAvD_BwE

Thoughts?

I think mudflaps are the go to for Rock chips 🤘.

I personally wouldn't spend 600 on plastic covers stuck on with tape, but if you like how they look go for it

I shelled out for RokBlokz and I've been happy with the coverage, but they are wicked expensive and I don't know if I'd recommend them. Another forum member backed up and ripped one off and I would say their response was not particularly heartening.
You may be able to achieve a similar effect with a heavy PPF-style film, even on just the lower part of the doors. Your local vinyl guy may be able to do that for less than the Ford part.

All you really need is front mud flaps.

I saw this but by the time you buy the Ford parts ($530) and paint ($500) ppf is actually cheaper and looks better

I too went with RockBlokz, mainly because they are easily removeable when you get off road...
