Made it into what it was designed as, a refrigerator magnet. Made another one for the tool box. 🤠

Probably most of the SAS rigs never see dirt, at least not the sort of dirt or rocks that require a fully capable Bronco.
Look at all the Wranglers you pass on an ordinary day--including the jacked ones. Imagine what the trails and backcountry would be like if even 10% of them were serious off-roaders!
A guy at my install shop remarked, (I don't think...) "10% of what I put on ever goes off-road."

gotta remove it so I can put the same script bronco emblem as everyone else lol.

nah, I like my little badlands squatch emblem, and I hate the script badge simply because of how overplayed it is.

Amen brother. Us flat earth folks off road but in a different way. An OBX would have served me well mechanically, I didn’t prefer is aesthetically (I’m looking at you 1990’s Buick Century Navy interior)

Mom had one when growing up, so it doesn’t resonate as a modern concept
For me personally. I do think Ford did pretty well with it, but damn, to me (personally) it’s almost as bad as oven baked chicken in Kraft BBQ sauce.

Do we know if the OEM Heritage Ltd. Ed. script "Bronco" emblems are plastic as well? Does anyone have a part number for those?

They're metal:

Heritage Limited Edition models offer the increased capability of Badlands™ series equipment and features, including a 2.7-liter EcoBoost V6 engine with up to 330 horsepower and 415 lb.-ft. torque* mated to the 10-speed SelectShift automatic transmission. They are also differentiated with features that include metal “Bronco” script fender badging, leather-trimmed/vinyl plaid seats with white and Race Red accent stitching and unique Heritage Limited console badging.

Haven't seen the part number yet from Ford on these. I bought a set last year from badgeslide that are metal and good quality for $100 a set but they're not advertised on their site anymore so wonder if Ford gave them a C&D. I understand Ford being protective of their trademarks but they need to offer an alternative for a reasonable price and people would flock to them instead. Also waiting on the Archetype badges mentioned a bunch already so I'll choose between the two once my Heritage gets here.

Badlands orange on Eruption Green is the best look - just wish the badge was stamped metal.
