I like my base sasquatch sticker and people still ask if I paid 60,000 for it, love the look on the face when I tell em it's 40,000.

This is my issue. I’m taking mine off, but if someone made a color matched or even just a black with clear bits in place of the white and blue, black diamond badge that’s an actual badge. I’d buy one and stick it on my tailgate.

I doubt that’s gonna happen though.
These are what I bought to replace the bright orange stickers on my Badlands

They look better on my on my CrazyCaps water bottle than on my Bronco, you peel them off just right and they stick to anything.

a lot of good comments and reasons listed already. I removed mine because the "Bronco" brand has been around since 1966 - trim badges are new and only bronco enthusiasts' even know what they mean. It's a Bronco first and foremost. Ford should have badged "Bronco" more prominently IMHO. Secondly, the trim badge sticker looks cheap and was easy to remove. I replaced with metal script in nod to its heritage. I think it looks good but understand others viewpoints. Finally, I modified my OBX with so many BL features that even Ford representatives asked me what trim package I had - it just doesnt mean anything with extensive mods.

Mounted one on the front grill, the other one on the rear cargo door above the door handle. Black Bronco scripts on the sides.

Just want to say, that Hot Pepper Red color is growing on me, looks nice in your photos. And I vote for the old school "Bronco" script badge. Because I'm buying the Bronco as kind of an old school throwback vehicle.

Although honestly, I'm getting a Bronco because it's basically what a modern version of my old 1972 Land Rover should be. So maybe I should put an LR Series badge on the Bronco instead. :)

I personally like the Wildtrak badging on my Bronco but, I get that some do not. And I understand when they take them off for their dislike of the look of the badges.

But, here is what I find amusing with some once they take them off, they replace them with fender badges that say Bronco. I looked at my stock badged Wildtrak and it says Bronco on the bumper, Bronco on the windshield, Bronco on the dash, Bronco on the running boards, it has a horse on the tailgate, a horse on the steering wheel and a horse on every wheel.

And then, you know what happens, those that removed the fender badges put a Bronco script on each fender. :unsure: I mean seriously, insert tongue in cheek humor here, how many times do you want it to say Bronco? :ROFLMAO:

Oh, I almost forgot it says Bronco on the key fob, you can pull it out of your pocket and show everyone you have a Bronco! o_O

They been on there 2 weeks, they are nice for plastic scripts. If it were not for me already purchasing the AR scripts these would stay on. If you are on a budget I would recommend this product for sure. Thanks bud!

Looks awesome. I did the same with mine. My personal take is that people should just do whatever they think looks good and stop knocking others that think differently. It's like arguing what color is better.

Its more like trying to win an argument with the wife. After 28yrs of marriage I think my record is 3-1,000,000. LOL!

I like the clean look it gives the Bronco, I do it to my F-150s, on the side of the tailgate where it says "Sport 4x4."
Yes, they are nothing more than a decal, agree? Cheap, Yes but spending more on decorative devices, is not for me. There are other more important things wanted for my Bronco...!

Some people (not me) feel you can never have enough badges.
