That's a BL grille
Actually that is the correct Black Diamond grille. From the looks of it, it does look like the Bronco that was at the dealership.

After seeing these Steelies again, I am wondering if they are the final paint. I remember specifically in the BN Materials video that they were NOT going to be glossy but a satin black. This set is wayyyy glossy. That would be fine with me, but I think they will look a tad better in satin.

I'd like to have those black wheels as an option on my base...(please)
You interested in some takeoffs? I'm 96% getting the BD and already have a set of aftermarket wheels I'm interested in. I'd be willing to sell my steelies if there is interest.

Its so awesome that it comes standard with a nice sized screen. It makes a big difference and those electronics are dirt cheap in 2020. It blows my mind when other manufacturers go cheap on that. The standard size jeep screen is a joke.
I don’t mind the smaller size compared to the 12”, I just hate that it’s recessed and surrounded by such an ugly bezel. The flush 12” looks so clean.

EDIT: the 12" isn't actually flush after all, but still looks much better-integrated into the dash than the 8".

I agree with you, i also think they screwed up that bezel. I just don't care for anything else in the high package so I'm debating if it's worth the increased price.

...You're a little too far away...and besides,I read some one said the BD wheels are a little bigger than the base wheels..

Seeing those Grabbers on those steelies makes me think that I might not need the SAS. Those won’t look bad at all on a two door.
I think some will be pretty surprised how good it may look on the 2D. A little utilitarian runabout. I think it will have a pretty cool "classic" look to it.

No one said it, but if the driver's screen has a "door ajar" notification, what happens when you take the doors... off? :confused:

The steelies are quoted as gloss black from Ford's description of the BD. Also, the BD standard tires are 32"; 265/70 - 17. The steelies are 17x7.5. I checked on a few tire sites that a 285/70 - 17 tire can be fitted on a 7.5" wide rim, so going to a 33" tire shouldn't be an issue for the stock BD steelies.

I've been searching the web for a black 18x8 steel wheel in the Ford 6x5.5 bolt pattern. Haven't yet found one.

When you disconnect the door's wiring harness you do not get a notification that it is open anymore. Same as Jeep.

My salesman was lucky enough to get his hands on a four door Black Diamond in Shadow Black today and he sent me these pictures. Nothing too crazy, but you get a good side view with stock wheels and tires as well as a decent look at the standard instrument panel and the 8" screen. It also looks like this one has the Mid Package because it has heated seats. He didn't get a lot of info, but he got to drive it and said it felt very solid compared to the Ranger.

I am assuming the top is so light in color because it's more preproduction shenanigans, so I wouldn't count on this being the final color.
