It’s black. Wait...

That front license plate also.

Well that placement looks a little better than what we’ve seen before, but still...

Looks like an afterthought. Like somebody just slapped it on there.

License plate is an improvement. Not wild about it, but I can live with that.

Is it mounted that high because of the active air vents below it? Looks terrible

They are definitely moving in the right direction! Hopefully the final version is something easily removable without permanent holes in your paint.

Looks like the grill has one big buck tooth.

the active air vents are behind the grill, the intercooler is mounted behind the middle of the bumper.

Wonder how it effects with the winch mounted there?

Thank goodness we don't need a front plate in Ohio anymore!!

Does this one look like it only mounts to the bumper and not to the body? If it just bolts into pre-existing bolt holes on the bumper at least it makes it much easier to run a front bumper until a better solution comes from the aftermarket without worrying about putting permanent holes in the body.

On the 2011-2014 F-150, the V8 got its license plate right in the middle of the bumper:

While the EcoBoost version had its license plate off to the side to allow better airflow to the intercooler:

I'd wager it's something similar on the Bronco since both engines will have an intercooler there.

Ford would make bank on upgrades to the Modular bumper if one of its features was "alternative license plate mounts."

That's coming off at the Dealer's lot. Mod. #1.

Thanks for posting that as that's p'much my Bronco. Only add was ottomatic as I am getting old. No, my name is not otto.
