I think Code Orange is going to be the only acceptable color in this trim.

Wow that black one take my money.

I'm keeping my FEs grill, headlights, and taillights though...

You couldn't. Your taillights would have a gap with the rear fenders due to them being complimentary of each other... The grill and head lights yes... If that grill isn't a bit longer...

Administrator says the black one has painted flares. Looks much better. I wish there were a little more fender and less flare, but paint matching helps a lot.

You don't need admin approval, you can see it. Plus the admin edited the title and initial post once we pointed it out...

Just saying...

Just seems unnecessary. Give folks a V8 option in the Badlands & Wildtrak models and call it a day. Call it a Sassy-quatch or whatever you want. Clearly I'm not in marketing/advertising.

I can’t wait to see fender deletes! It’s gonna be

the fender delete can't be worse than the actual fenders.... can it?
Those flares are straight up Lame ass fugly.

It's going to be real hard to let go of my Lightning Blue FE. But I think a Eruption Green Bronco Raptor will be looking real nice next to my Raptor Truck.

Question with the flares, why do they have to stick up the sides of the body like they do? I feel like if they just mounted flush similar to the stock Bronco ones it would look better:

Trim all that excess off? Maybe the front ones would look too Jeepy like that

The flares are there so you don’t sling rocks into your paint and windows. The faster you go over rocky terrain the higher the rocks bounce off tires and the ground. I’m sure the fenders are just as easily removed as normal Bronco fenders.

That all black Raptor is nice…

I know some don’t like the fat flares, but I would rather have fat flares than lots of tire poke.

I just don’t understand why the hard top can‘t be produced to match the black flares… or vis a versa, and make the flares grey.

Black composites warp and distort in the sun. Also makes it super-hot inside. I think the dark-grey was to keep it cooler inside and so we don't bitch about the tops warping....we would definitely be bitchy about that.

I guess it looks LESS ugly in Black / Blue. So there is that at least.

 

[TtotheZ]

Anyone know why they chose to use "FORD" instead of "BRONCO" across the front? It bothers me lol.
Not as much of a fan of the Braptor as I thought I'd be!

I can't get over how bad the back of the rear flare looks. It looks completely out of place with the rest of the vehicle. What is the point of this "growth" here? Would have looked better with the retro flare shape / \

If you ignore/remove the mud flap, it reminds me of the race broncos “open back“ design. I dunno though.

oh yeah… warped tops would definitely be a hot topic!

Why do all these pre production vehicles always look like they are being driven by someone picking up groceries or meds from costco? Just once I want to see someone who looks like they drive the sh*t out of it testing every aspect

They are at the local saloon, celebrating their great fortune to work for a Company that allows a crazy incredible vehicle like the Bronco Raptor to be engineered to reach the end of an assembly line and be delivered to equally crazy incredible customers (Who have $69,995 plus plus plus...)

Per the Raptor walk around that was posted earlier, all of the Raptor fender flares are painted surfaces. The only exception is the replaceable MIC insert on the front of the rear flares.

The difference we are seeing with the shadow black is body colored paint on the flares versus the flat/satin paint on the other Raptors.
