Cosmetic “improvements”

[amazingjason]

The Bronco is one of the best looking new cars. It looks great stock and lots of people apparently seem to think they can make it look even better. Wheels, stripes, wraps, badges, lifts and leveling kits, painted parts, etc. Do you think most cosmetic modifications improve the look of the Bronco?

I'm somewhere between the last 2. The only thing these need is new wheels, most of everything else is tacky.

Mods make your Bronco YOURS. I think even slight mods help make each one a little unique.

The only cosmetic change I've made is the Bronco script in place of the trim sticker. It's there for my nostalgia, not because I think it looks good or makes the Bronco look better.

Jeeps and Broncos are made for personalization. I don’t like tacky. Stickers and plastidip don’t do it for me. But I love seeing people make their vehicles unique, make them their own.

I've said it before, but I think ADV Fiberglass's fender flares are a big improvement over the stock round wheel arches, they fit the lines of the rest of the Bronco a lot better. The stock black plastic wheel arches almost feel like they need 35's at least for them to look properly filled out, I think that's one of the reasons non-squatched Broncos look especially short, I don't think the difference between Rubicons and Sports looks nearly as drastic on Jeeps.

I'm also probably going to remove the handles from the front, it's not something I ever forsee myself using, and I don't like how it breaks up the lines of the fender.

I'm not really one for modifying my vehicles aside from perhaps a few minor functional changes. I prefer to find a vehicle that fits a particular mission need than to spend good money purchasing a vehicle, then spend more money changing it. I try to get something as close to what I need/want as possible.

That said, I have absolutely no issue with people changing or modifying their vehicles to suit their wants, needs, character, and personality. I've seen some that look incredible and some that, in my opinion, look terrible, but the owners see it through THEIR eyes, not mine, so I cannot fault them at all, so long as they like it.

My Bronco came pre-modified by the custom shop at the dealership I purchased from. The complete build was done for the customer who placed the initial reservation/order (but backed out prior to delivery) and included a leveling kit, Ford Performance flares and hood scoop, Fuel Blitz wheels with Nitto Ridge Grapplers. I never would have done any of this on my own, but it was already done and it turned out I liked it.

Especially when it came that way in Antimatter Blue!
