Badge Delete/Replacement featuring Outlaw Studio

[trenttrizzy]

Shoutout to @Outlaw_Studio/No Shame Garage for the sweet customizable Bronco badges and top notch customer service/shipping speed! I’d also like to shoutout @atx_chance for the step by step instructions on how to do something that I would’ve never attempted had I not seen his clearly explained and planned out post.

Following Chance’s instructions, I was able to sand, paint, assemble, and mount my badges this weekend andI couldn’t be happier. I used his exact same color scheme and paint choices as I felt the badlands orange looks great against cactus gray and it all came together pretty well.

Pro tip: DO wait the full 24 hours (maybe even 48 hours to be safe) before attempting to handle the letters after painting. Though the paint is fairly dry after a few hours, it’s still pretty soft to the touch, especially if you’re assembling it. My impatience led to a few small (noticeable to me!) imperfections due to the paint being a little soft.

Pics of the process below:

Very, very cool. How difficult was it to take the stock badges off?

Is the material laser-cut wood?

Not hard at all. Simply apply heat from a heat gun or blow dryer for 30-45 seconds and slide a piece of dental floss behind it— glides like a hot knife through butter.

High quality glossy acrylic.

The hardest part about painting is the patience part! Looks factory.

I bought two emblem sets from this shop and am trying to decide which one to use. One is like yours, but says Sasquatch where yours says Big Bend. The other set is a an old-school block BRONCO. Pics of both below. Since I just got my Bronco on Thursday, and havent decided which set to go with, neither are painted. Im leaning more towards the block set. BTW, the quality is really good.

These look pretty good! Nice to see something different for a change.

I have the same, but Outerbanks...

Just bought one for the rear.

Prefer the sides to be smooth/clean.

Very nice. Any tips for getting that color? Seems like a very close match. I plan on doing this same exact look

Looks excellent! Of course I am a fan of this color combo on a 2 door cactus gray bronco haha. Enjoy!

PS - you have an undercover big bend, the badlands wheels/tires and grill had me doing a double take.

Haha, yeah—wasn’t a fan of the stock wheels/grill for the Big Bend so I swapped em out asap.
