Looking real good!! Would it be possible to post a couple of after pics of the areas that were cracked? Please report back after time goes by regarding how the Custom Coat has held up to fading and whether or not any of the cracks have telegraphed through the finish.

I am getting conflicting notices between the Ford App and Ford.com regarding the infotainment screen software update for my ‘24 Badlands. I was notified by the Ford App on my phone a month or so ago that a OTA software fix for the blank infotainment screen issue was available. (By the way my...

@DemonGT Broaddict Aluminum Pinch Weld Covers. They work with the factory running boards, but not enough clearance with factory rock sliders.

The Mabett front flaps perfectly touch the front of the factory running boards. In fact, the Mabett flaps were shipped with a sheet of adhesive-backed foam rubber that pieces can be cut from to provide a cushion/shield between the flaps and the fronts of the running boards. FWIW, the Mabett...

The other day I pulled up to the drive-thru at Culver’s for some ice cream in my Badlands with its doors off. My local Culver’s offers Jeep owners little ducks with the Culver’s logo as a promotion. The young gal at the drive-through window seeing the doors off, offered me a duck, so I guess...

Ok, now need to determine the best way to get at the door skin/crashbar junction to re-adhere…. Hopefully there’s a good shot at it with the door card removed and the window rolled up. I’ve used Franklin TiteBond gun adhesive to good effect with metals in the construction business, but never on...

Forgot to mention in my prior post… When I had to use the mechanical key to gain entry to my Bronco because the fob was not recognized either by keyless entry or fob button press, that set off the car alarm horn and triggered an “Unauthorized entry” warning until I was able to place the fob in...

Ironically, the same thing happened to me today with my 2 1/2 year-old Badlands, except that the key fob wouldn’t even let me unlock the door. I had to use the mechanical key to open the door and then use the fob in the indent in the console to start the Bronco. If there was a “Key Battery Low...

2024 Badlands with MIC top. Parked both directions on a sloped driveway steeper than yours. Many long Minnesota rains and a few deluge thunderstorms. And a few snowstorms with melting snow. Drive-through car wash once. Many hand washes using the garden hose, many washes using my pressure washer...

It’s your lucky day. If I was you I’d say a little prayer of gratitude that A.S.S. has magically gone away and then go buy a lottery ticket!

Dunno about your soft top assist, but I do know from having an assortment of many toppers on pickup trucks for decades. that getting 3 1/2 years out of a pair of lift struts for something opened frequently like a topper’s rear glass door before they go soft is pretty good. Get the dimensions...

Mabett’s, with or without the graphic. No drill, sturdy brackets, good fit, flaps look OEM. If choosing to run mud flaps, definitely the fronts, rears optional because the tires are so close to the rear of the truck not much splash onto the back corners. I have both on for the winter to keep the...

Order your Bronco in any color other than black. 😉 My first brand new vehicle was a fresh off the lot shiny F-150 XLT in gloss black and it showed every minor scratch and speck of dust ‘til the day I traded it in for a different color. That being said, running boards and front mud flaps will...

Nice retro 2G Bronco block letter script! I warmed up the badge with a heat gun and used a plastic razor blade to lift up a corner, then it pops off pretty easy and can be reused. Agree that a badge and the 1G Bronco script is too much on the fender, so relocated the badge to the rear side...

Old school, new school.
