Closeups of Eruption Green Bronco Raptor [updated w/ interior, suspension, engine underhood pics])

[Omarius]

I have generally always believed that bigger fender flares are better. From e30 m3s, to Lancer Evos to f150 raptors. Until I saw this thing. Leave it to Ford to make the Bronco Raptor so incredibly hideous that it loses all appeal as a Raptor product.

Call me stupid, but i still like the Base Sasquatch better.

You aren't stupid. I STRONGLY prefer my Eruption Green Wildtrak. It to me looks far better. The raptors just looks.....ridiculous to me. Overdone, and not in a good way.

So salty. I believe in the flesh these will be bad @$$.

I have noticed the RTR bronc has some cool flares and can't help to wonder if they're planning to offer an alternative. Ford pushed an "easy to unbolt body" akin to a lego set, even patented a fender mounted shovel and step front fender, and yet has not offered/ teased any ford performance bolt on body / fender alternatives.

Good god those graphics are horrible!

I would look darn good driving that to work every day. Nothing about that vehicle bothers me.

A lot of people here wanting the Raptor to look like a Porsche for some odd reason...knowing full well if they gave it the same fenders as the Raptor they'd be up in arms about how it "looks just like a regular Bronco". "Ford should have made it stand out somehow".

There is nothing elegant about the Raptor. It's supposed to be a huge, capable, rugged beast. It wasn't codenamed Warthog for being sleek and pretty. Those gargantuan flares are going to be the main thing that people see and realize it's something different from "another Bronco".

That said- screw the "digital mud" decal.

No love for those upgraded seats? They are far superior to what comes in your Outer Banks. I can’t imagine preferring the OB seats to what the Raptor offers. Are you drunk again? Just kiddin, but not really.

I can understand 2 door guys hating on it because the 2 door/4 door thing. But automatic 4 door guys hating on it because of ugly fender flares, when the Raptor offers way more than that, seems salty to me. Wait until they are sitting in traffic behind one and they have to choose between looking at the ugly flares or looking at their ugly dash like always when they sit behind the wheel. Lol

man all these salty bronco trolls up in the raptor section act like they wouldnt trade for a braptor when they know damn well they would. no matter how much you try to push that lie, its the better truck, period.

I for one would not trade. Nor would I purchase I could if I found an available one but I would not. Simple reason I’d never even come close to using it the way it’s built for. I’m going to be a very occasional off road and daily my bronco. If I didn’t have kids,wife and I lived somewhere where I could actually use it then I may. But for now nope no interest. And yes the raptor should be a two door.

Good God, those pics really show off how huge the fender flares are.

Can we get this close up work in Black, and Silver?

Good God, those pics really show off how huge the fender flares are.

Wow Sure do agree with you on those fenders. Great vehicle horrible fenders

Obviously the flares are horrendous. Has anyone looked to see if the flares from the everglades model will fit? They appear to have a similar shape. Id love to swap the fenders and quarters on my 2dr if I could get a smaller flar.

I wonder if those pocket lights can be installed on the poor's people Bronco : )

 

['18 M2]

LOL would you look at the fender flares on this POS

Just terrible, this is the 90's Jeep Renegade.

I'm all for differentiation, but this goes in the wrong direction. I'd love to see it with some aftermarket flares and something to replace the terrible graphics and cutouts.

The bones are there under the hideous appearance. This could still be something special with a lot of work.

Nice things, the seats, the Grill, Suspension, the display. The Engine has a lot more HP. (Not my thing, but I know some of y'all are into that)
