Aftermarket bumpers cheesy on Bronco Raptor?

[luvmybronco]

Is it Cheesy to put 4WP front and rear bumpers on an 80k rig? I bought the bumpers when they first came out for my 2 dr BadSas that I have since converted to a Braptor. I know it is my Bronco and can do whatever I want to it, but would less expensive bumpers fit the part and look right on a Raptor I’m paying $80k for?

Totally agree!

I did a whole rig build for what I wanted, and you know what I did?
A stubby antenna. Cause the stock antenna annoyed me when on the highway.
That's it.

Some people may laugh at my OBX, but quite frankly, I don't give a sh*t about what anyone thinks.

Yeah, I hate the big whip antennas. Put a stubby on my 21 F250 tremor. Reception sucks, but I normally play from my Amazon music anyways so who cares unless I have no signal. Lol

Ford put $3 flares on an $80k rig, it will look fine.

Wow really? I have seen zero change in reception. Although I don't know if the whip antenna on the bronco is fixed with SiriusXM? I don't listen to terrestrial radio, but have seen no difference with SXM.

I’m pretty sure SiriusXM uses a different antenna. At least on my F250, I have two black boxes (antennas) mounted on the back of my cab. I think one is for the WiFi and one is for SiriusXM

I don't notice any on my Bronco though. I'm sure someone here knows exactly if there are XM antenna

I think the SiriusXM antenna is mounted on the rear of the roll cage at the BRONCO insignia.

SiriusXM and ground based radio use entirely different antenna. If you never listen to FM/AM radio then 100% you noticed zero reception differences and changed the antenna for looks. And if you're happy, then perfect!

Better question is will the BadSas bumpers fit the Braptor? Isn't the Braptor several inches wider than standard Bronco?

People will be looking at the goofy rear fenders and won't notice the rear bumper. So there's that...
