Bronco Raptor Fender Flares Revealed (From Teaser Video)

[bajabronco57]

I mean I don't fault anyone for not liking these fenders, I'll admit they are disappointing... but I'll just spend like 1k on some aftermarket ones and be fine. I'm not going to damn the whole thing because of the fenders.

Well, here are the flares unmasked. The question is are they really that bad? I’m starting to think it might just work. Could’ve been the excessive camouflage that was throwing us off.

From teaser video:

Don't think those are the real flares

I’m more in the camp of…if it provokes a gag reflex as I walk up to it, it’s not for me.

This was my first thought as well. I've had 2 Raptor F-150's. The BRaptor will not be joining my fleet anytime soon, or ever. I hope it's a beast off road, because aesthetically, it's an epic fail for me. I really hope someone is punking us.

Agreed. I’m just getting a weird vibe from the design. For reference, had they treated the Raptor truck the same way I’d envision it looking as hideous as this…

The rear one looks like it belongs on a farm tractor. Not sure which looks worse, these or the Ford accessory Bushwackers or whatever they're called.

Sure about that?

Yes. If you look really closely you can see they cover up the fuel filler door on the photos. And I don't think that's an after thought on Ford's part. Which means the fender flares and covering up another set of fender flares. And those won't interfear with the fuel filler door.

 

[Snydermann]

They have to be stealth covers hiding the real fender/flare design.

I just noticed that too. Maybe the real fender flares will be boner-inducing after all.

I'm in the "those aren't the real flares" camp. Between the obvious terrible look and the appearance that it covers the fuel door, I think that is still camo that they are screwing with us with. Guess we'll know tomorrow.

I’m not so sure. When I zoom in, on the lower right side of the gas door, you can see it turning left over the top of the flare. I think it skims the top of that flare and probably has a hinge that swings it upward as it opens.

Ugh. It's worse than I thought. That must be why they are revealing it at 6am ET. Hoping no one will see it.

Before any has had their first cup of coffee. Lol

 

[peterh]

wow those look real bad.

 

[GravyTrain]

Hopeful they are over exaggerated and the real ones underneath will be better. This could be a deal breaker for me.

 

[Toccoa]

No idea if that is true.

 

[Garemlin]

I think someone screwed up and put the fender liners on the outside instead of the inside.
