The Red R is definitely part of my Dream Spec!

I hate upbadgers.

Thats a pretty discreet one though, most people won't pick up on it

Didnt know "upbadgers" were a thing...apparently even a menace to society?

Stickers.

Seems to be a thing on off-road rides.
I bet it'll be on a lot of Broncos.

I even foresee the C being changed to D.

I wouldn't call them a menace to society by any means, but there are a LOT of fake Shelby's, Cobra's, Civic Type R's, ZR'1 Camaro's, Hellcats, Yenkos, etc. out there. Way more than you realize. Maybe some are even built up and faster/better in some respects. Many times though the badges are all they swap and fool the novice. Now if you wanna build a clone with the look, cool. IMO, leave the badges off though if it's not the real deal.

Where it infuriates me is at car shows where they register it as the upbadged vehicle. Then when they win something and they announce the winners and the judges say "The 1968 Shelby GT500 wins" when it is a clone. Nothing wrong with it just being the "1968 Ford Mustang GT fastback".

This is a button for me though, not looking to have an argument. Stepping down off of my soap box.

Oh yea. Most grow out of it shortly after high school but there's always some misguided souls who continue through life thinking it's okay to put Raptor badges on XLTs, Z06 badges on base automatics, and Ferrari badges on Fieros. Sad.

Stay up on that soap box! We need people to know upbadging is not okay!

Tonque was firmly planted in cheek with the menace to society comment. I do appreciate the explanation and enlightenment. No idea that was going on. Thank you. Sir.

I totally understand where you're coming from on this and feel the same way, but at the same time people can do what they want with their vehicles. Chances are they only fool people who aren't car enthusiasts.

I fully support people adding upgraded trim or features from "better" models later to get what they want, but I would never label it the upper trim. I think putting the red R is a bit different because at this point we can't buy a Bronco R so it's more like a tribute to it.

I am just rambling... love the customizability of the Bronco and look forward to seeing all of the major and minor tweaks people do to theirs!

Exactly, plus I don't think it's necessary an upbadge itself as the R is just the race version not an actual production version like a type R or Raptor grill.

This is like putting a 'Type R' badge on your integra ls..

just don't, guys.
