In fairness, I started as one who overdid it. Mistakes were made. But I do feel like we are finding the right balance! Thanks for saying.
Well, you don't need full dog dishes. Can the current center cap be modified?

Great question…. It’s a pop out with “52” logo embossed on it…

I think you have a point. The camera thru the spare tire mount gives you an idea of how good the other wheels would look like with a darker center cap.
Just a quibble. The thing looks awesome. Huge fan of the roll bar wrap.
Ford broke up all the black by using chrome nuts and silver Bronco logo.

Yeah, I checked my stock FE wheels to see if caps would fit Fifteen52s. Not even close.Ford broke up all the black by using chrome nuts and silver Bronco logo.
Chrome trade outs could be good.

Phase 1 Customizations: First Edition Area 51 - White Grille, Wheels, Mirrors, Stripes, Wrapped MIC Top
After much debate over whether it will work, I proceeded with white vinyl wrap of the MIC 2.0 Bronco top.
Installer: SideAfects San Antonio, TX
https://www.sideafects.com/
Material: 3M 2080 Gloss White Vinyl
Type 94 quick tack adhesive/bond.
For purposes of safety and due to the debate, we started with only one panel:
With that done, we put it thru the ringer: 350 mile road trip, dirt/dusty roads, cold front, 25 degree temperature change and full service car wash (foamy mops, high pressure/low pressure water). The results held and so we proceeded:
As an added bonus, we ordered a couple of extra yards and wrapped the roll cage: this to try and achieve some of the earliest Ford promotional photos:
If there is ONE spot I am worried about, it’s the middle of the windshield frame: this speaks more to the quality of the MIC top as there is a VERY uneven edge there that the wrap exposes when white on black. Might need to come up with a solution for that. This spot will take a ton of wind and elements.
Otherwise, very happy with the outcome. She is a good match for her 1969 counterpart in my profile photo.
Happy to answer questions for others who want to go down the road. Installer is confident it will hold. Advised to hit with Maguire’s spray wax four times per year to maintain and protect.
If it doesn’t hold, or I have issues - I will update. Hope the information is helpful.
