Raptor hood on non-raptor Bronco?

[ThatWilsonGuy]

I've got a Raptor and a Badlands, I can take pictures of each side by side easier than each of us trying to recreate the same picture. Also happy to do measurements.

The hoods are definitely different blanks from the start.

Raw dimensions of panel gap, I don't see anything that immediately stands out. What makes a raptor wider all starts outside of trail sights.

The hinges may be (stamped with different numbers but they are extremely similar. The hook of the latch design is different but I don't think the position or latch itself is different where it matters.

The horizontal mounting surface is different but it's hard to tell if that would create clearance issues.

If you think of some specific measurement, or picture that would help, let me know.

I don't see any difference in the contour of the interior of the hood that gives clearance concerns. I think it all comes down to the hinges.

Do you have a link? Haven't been able to find this exact one based on the brand name you provided.

Is this cosmetic only, or functional?

Hey buddy,

Here is their website, you can reach out to them. They have the moulds that they took from my car so they can easily reproduce and ship it out to you.

I can also get in touch with them if you're interested as they are local company here, based in the UAE.

It is fully functional vented bonnet.

I took the plunge. I love it. I had that addon but it just didn't look right. The Raptor hood is the way to go. The extractor will have a "Raptor" indention on it when you remove the Raptor emblem. You will have to fill it and repair. I resprayed the extractor with matt black clear and it came out much better than stock.

Daaaaaaaamn! That looks badass! Love the Heritage badge. I'll keep an eye out for your beautiful Bronco.

That turned out sick! What bumper is that? ARB Zenith color matched?

Yup, ARB. As far as looks-wise, to me it looked the best. Not for offroad because you can't put a winch on it. But for a mallcrawler, it does it's job.

Since I seen this posting have been on a lookout for a raptor hood.

Not an exact color match but finally found a perfect condition complete hood assembly at a great price.

Will need to get hood shocks and new emblems. Eventually I will get wrapped satin black but for now it’s fine.

Thanks for starting the thread…

Go with the adv heat extractor hood. It is similar to the BRaptor, a known fit, functional and bad ass.

Anything heat extractor is a big win these things have so much under hood heat from turbos plus skid plates blocking airflow they don't even use an engine cover.

Go with a Cervini hood. Great quality and reputation. Leave the Braptor parts for the Braptors.

Exactly, if its not a raptor dont put raptor parts on it. Lol sortve reminds me of ecoboost stangers slapping GT500 fascia on 4 bangers models.

That’s Ok… I like the styling of the hood.
I own and build what pleases me…

 

[bronco_ed]

Cobra Mustang parts work good in a Bronco also…

 

[bronco_ed]

Vans don’t have 4 wheel drive either…
But I like it…

let us know what we are allowed to enjoy. Thanks…

The people and posts always amaze me…Coming from a guy that had to post a thread on how to tighten up fog lights?

My apologies to the original thread creator for the extra photos.

Jesquatch… Again thanks for your postings to make us aware that the Raptor hood fit. I liked your mod so
Much that I copied it

Bro. Wtf is your problem?!?! I posted my opinion, plain and simple. And if you copied that look, my opinion stays the same. I wouldn't do that, just me.
And on the fog light question, absolutely. I never had a bronco raptor before and that's what a forum is for learning and sharing 411 on certain vehicles that forum members know about already. Why not have a visual or verbal ref on bolt/screw location or an easy way to fix.. than going in blind.
Btw, the hood must've struck a nerve with you lol im sorry. Let me ask you, would you ever place a Red Raptor R decal on your 6 banger?
