HOT PEPPER RED Bronco Club

[Rumbloki]

I have the same ordered. Would love to see the 35s On the stock rim when you get them. Thinking of doing the same once the 33s wear down.

I'll update when I get it done. The 35/11.5 is the same width as the 285's on there. I figure less rolling resistance and less weight at the circumference than a 35/12.5. Wife and I drive from Austin, TX to Panama City Beach, FL four to five times a year. I like the looks of the Nitto Recon.

I love this color!! 3 weeks in…

Wow! I know the wait probably drove you crazy but I’m sure it’s all worth it now that it sits before your eyes. It’s a gorgeous ride.

My HPR OBX 2.7L. I got a red bronco because the first car I drove was a 1978 Red Bronco like the one below the picture of my new Bronco.

When I first saw the HPR on the lot when I came to pick up the Bronco, it looked like burnt orange (you can see a hint of that in the glint of the sunlight on the passenger front fender flare), and I thought "Oh crap! I bought an orange car!!!!"

But after about an hour I decided I was really happy with the color. It seems to change in intensity, depending on the sunlight. It's a fun color for a fun ride.

In memory of:

Especially with these metallics, it's good to see in person, and under different lightings. Photos can be misleading. A guy in my neighborhood has an HPR Bronco and yes it's burnt orange, at least in the shade. In the sun it gets more starbursty, although not as red as some photos.

I would like to paint my tow hooks to match HPR is there a spray paint that matches?

HPR is a specialty type paint...only way to get a true match is to get it from your local automotive paint mixologist...calling it "mixologist" as your local paint mix shop probably wouldn't get it right. Also HPR is. metallic/pearl Tricolor, so very difficult indeed...won't come in a spray can.

I saw somewhere on the forum that someone used Krylon fusion gloss pepper red spray paint. It might be with a try.

Hit and Run Video: I waited 969 days for my Bronco and have been hit in the rear twice since getting it in April. This time a hit and run while parked. Very large bang at 5 seconds into video alerted me when I was doing work in back yard of friend.

Is there some powerful magnet in the back of my vehicle?

I upgraded the rear bumper with an RCI Bumper after the first hit and glad I did.
Thanks @RCI Offroad for better protecting my Bronco.

Video at half speed until after the hit.

Side-by-side trip in the mountains of No. Utah near Bear Lake. I don't know which I like better, HPR or Kawasaki Green! But they definitely clash

I feel your pain. Mine was ready the day I left for a 10 day trip. Finally get it when I get back.

Hi guys, first time ever on a forum so apologies if this shows up as a reply, couldn’t figure out how to make a new post on this. Anyway…
Here is my new ride, my husband surprised me with her, she is simply awesome. Started as a Big Bend with the 2.7. He had it it set up with a RC 5” lift and Nitto 37x12.5 17’s on Black Rhino wheels. Also has Amp Research powerstep XL power steps. The sound system was upgraded with a stinger subwoofer, new JL Audio speakers all around and two 500 Watt amps. To say I love her is an understatement.

I love your wheels. What style of Black Rhino are those?
