Are the trim / model badges stickers or badges?

I doubt it. The base gets no badge. They’re not making two types of fenders for a badge. Also, modern glue stays put. No need for holes.
Don't tell that to Mustang owners, V6 in past or ecoboost have no emblems=no holes, but all GT's for years have holes in the fender for the GT or 5.0 emblem. My GT350 emblems have locating holes
I might want to put the old style bronco emblems on the fender so I hope no holes

That video was fascinating. I honestly think I would enjoy being on that assembly line. Maybe it would get old.

I'm also kind surprised we haven't seen any merch with the trim badging.
I mean, they've already got an Amazon store up and running. With the way they are marketing these trims, it would seem like a no-brainer to slap those badge graphics on a hat...

Not sure if I'd want to buy anything like that until I actually place a vehicle order, though, as I could wind up changing trim levels.

Easy. Fishing line and some Goo Gone.
Tip, when using fishing line, use your boots instead of your hands. Gloves help but not as much as a Vibram sole.
Sit on a chair and pedal an invisible bicycle as the line saws through the 3m badge tape.

$0.02: They look to me a little more robust than thin film stickers -- more like a thin aluminum or hard plastic plate with adhesive on the back. They also look like they'd be more of a pita to "floss" off without damaging the fender finish.

When I replaced the chrome 5.0 badges with black ones on our Mustang GT, the backing was a foam-backed adhesive which allowed floss-sawing a little bit away from the fender surface. The Bronco badges don't look as easy.

I tried to get some pics that show the depth of the sticker. It's a substantial hard vinyl sticker. Not a nice metal badge, but not a flimsy sticker either.

Most likely 3m graphic film printed vinyl with clear overlay 3.5mm thick. Holds up well to the abuse on dirt bikes.
It's nowhere close to 3.5mm thick. But it's also not flimsy.

Maybe I misheard the decimal point (on Mx graphics) lol, agreed they’re not over 1/8” lol I could believe .35mm. I’m sure people could have billet badges make some emblems if there unhappy with the decal.

When I inspected the Bronco at SuperCel West, the badge thickness kinda reminded me of a fridge magnet or a bit thinner.
