I would do the white top, fender flares and mirror caps body color. Just my 2 cents. Beautiful build!

Consider painting the fenders white and do white lettering out on the tires. I would also change the shackle color to Area 51
When the bronco was first announced there was a color, which I now believe is Catus Gray, that had the trim in white and I feel in love.
I almost went with Cactus Gray but it was too light. Glad I got A51!

I think a lot of us liked that rig and the retro look it had. Of course then we learned that everything (including the paint color!) wasn't available IRL. I've seen renderings of white accessories on Cactus Gray but no real pics yet. So far AMB and Area51 are all I've seen. I'm sure someone will do it, might even be me if I get drunk and my wallet and checkbook aren't locked upWhen the bronco was first announced there was a color, which I now believe is Catus Gray, that had the trim in white and I feel in love.

Massive agreement on white lettering on tires. Sadly, it doesn’t exist on the stock FE tires…. Would have to buy all new. Next set.

here's a quick mock up with white top...I think it'd look better with black mirrors.

The speed shop sent it to a reputable painter who took my gas cap to do color match for Area 51. They also matched grille to wheels. Cool technology I reckon but I know little. Mostly: Use a reputable paint shop!
When this all started last year I thought for sure I wanted white accents on my A51. Now that I've seen a few....I was wrong. White top? Maybe. White accents? Not a fan.
But that's just me!!! I'm glad the owner loves it.

Thanks for sharing. I really enjoy seeing what the new Bronco owners are doing to personalize them.

Darrin,With excellent help from BlackJack Speed Shop in San Antonio, TX and while deciding if/how to handle the MIC top paint/wrap:
fifteen52 White Aluminum “Steelies“. Color matched grille. Color matched Area 51 letters. Painted horse emblem. Vinyl wrapped mirrors. White D Rings on tow hooks. Bronco fender logos. First edition badge relocated to swing gate. Ridergraphix white graphics door and hood.
Rigid lights on mirrors (Aux 1). Baja Designs pocket lights (Aux 2,3,4). Tint driver/passenger.
Looks great with the White accents. Do you mind if I use your pics on our website? Also, feel free to post more or email pics.
