So one of my favorite things about the car to the left of this comment is that despite the fact that the nose is very low, it's costs under $250 for to replace the plastic bits under the spoiler in the front when you scrape it on stuff. This is very different from most sports cars. I imagine this is similar with these flares - They're going to get banged up and replacing plastic is way easier / cheaper than painted panels. Just a thought.

Evidently Ford didn't think too much of the amateur photoshop I put up on BR6G in Sept. 2020:

That's infinitely better.

But, it might not "fit in the spray booth". What a crock.

The fender flares are still ugly. :sick: I can’t even focus on the rest of the vehicle with how much they stand out.
What ^ said!

fix the fenders and add a better hood and maybe. Best thing about the Raptor is its interior. But that was the reveal interior so who knows what it will actually look like. I would rather a true Heritage Edition than a wanna be F150 Raptor... just saying.

Now, now... Keep in mind it's built in the same plant/factory as the regular Bronco and Ranger, so no... Wouldn't fit. Just like the V8 or 3.5 wouldn't work because it ain't at that plant. Efficiency and profit over customer requests/preferences...

It will sell anyway so Ford be like...

And it's all yours for $70,000!

Adjustable petals? Stop-and-Go? Ventilated seats? Nope! That's all reserved for the $45,000 F150

This fenders looks like crap. Everything else I am ok with.
I'm going with the fenders and the quarter fenders and the hood
Yep, still not getting past those flares. The mystery while under disguise was intriguing. The reality is sickening.
I'm going with ADV Fenders front and back, hood with scoop and saving $30k

For this design to work, that actual fenders needed to be bigger. The huge flares look lazy on Ford’s part. It’s an awesome truck. Just falls short on this one aspect.

Meh, a ludicrous number of them will be ordered in Code Brown Orange as it's the exclusive color. This is just their test mule.

And jokes about how hideous the fender flares are aside, it's likely a mandatory DOT requirement and if you're really using the thing as intended then the grocery store cart attendant won't care they will get pulled off anyway.
The aftermarket game will be strong here.
