WHAAAAAT???? NO Insurance company blames anyone for any glass damage while driving, they just replace it !!

I'm talking about paint on your hood, I never once mentioned glass.

Yep, dealer did it at PDI

@chtucker I’m so glad I read this thread. I picked up my bronco from FoK Friday and have been spinning my tires. I know we’ve gotten a lot of rain in the PNW, but man. My wife had to put it in 4A to get up a hill this afternoon! Do these tires really suck that bad or is it all the excess tire shine?

I hate tailgating people but your hood never gets damage from close distance

I completely disagree. If the people behind you are not smart enough to maintain a safe distance, that is on them. Safe means staying far enough back that you don't get chips on your windshield etc. It's not your responsibility to protect the guy tailgating you from himself. No way, no how!

You could be 12 car lengths back on a freeway and catch the jerk’s rocks spitting out in front of you At 65/70 mph.

Must be the tire shine, the only time that has happened to me (and was expected) was the hill up ny Chateau Saint Michelle, but all my cars do that when turn up by the tracks

Nothing fancy but Ford has them for both front and rear. You don't have to get the more expensive ones or do any modifications.

"Get mudflaps or you will devalue your bronco with rock chips...."

no more than 3 min later....

"put these self taping screws in your fender liner and flare itself"

AR needs to design some rear cap extensions for the fenders. Maybe a complete fender redesign?

You there AR?

Yea definitely an issue that needs to be addressed!!

Does anyone know why these say it does not fit with Rock rails when the picture shows it on with rockrails?

This is why I went with the Dominator D6 steps. I hear rocks pelting them constantly. Peace of mind.
