While I respect the BRaptor game and those who play it, this is a hard no from me.

Without being a complete a-hole, I see something like this and fully expect Ja Rule to jump out and start rapping.

To be fair and to not ruffle any feathers, if/when I ever get a truck (800+ days) I will be driving it straight to the Line-X shop which according to many is just as polarizing/cringe inducing. What can you do? 🤷‍♂️

I bet a fender delete would look freaking awesome on a Raptor.

Other than the 20s or 22s or whatever wheel size, that think looks excellent!
Agree. Those wheels are not great and kinda ruin the truck.

I’m thinking of doing the same when my Everglades comes in this week. It’s black but still may color match a few pieces. Really want to get rid of the stupid snorkel.
I’ll buy that snorkel set-up off your hands. DM me if you’re serious.

Does anyone else think the Raptor just looks like a half-Heep from the factory? The fender flares, the tailights, etc? I wish they would've toned down how much it has going on.

Heep: "A vehicle with an excess of gaudy and over-the-top modifications, often a Jeep Wrangler or similar"

Honestly I think Vossen wheels look awesome, despite the fact they obviously sacrifice some advantages of the big tires (shock absorption, sidewall grip, etc.). I just wish they offered 17" or even 18" versions---their design is otherwise great.

Venomrex have a very similar look in my opinion and come in 17". Wheels are nice, just not purpose built for a raptor.

I don't see this build on their website. Anyone know what bumpers those are?
The bumpers are the ADD Bomber front and rear. ADD has not yet released bumpers for the Bronco Raptor yet and these are the standard Bronco front/rear bumpers. I spoke with ADD about this truck and they said that while the bumpers will bolt up, they don't quite fit the way that ADD would like them to and they will be releasing a Raptor-specific line of bumpers that fit the curves of the truck better.

Other than the 20s or 22s or whatever wheel size, that think looks excellent!
These are the Vossen HF6-4 20x10 -18 offset.

@Bronco2025 has a great point about the VenomRex VR-601BL wheels. A very similar style with the 6-spoke Y-spoke, but in a 17" size with a simulated beadlock ring.

Those look really good and at home on a raptor. Almost went for them until I saw the RTR wheels.
