My Bronco should be arriving in a few weeks and I want to paint my Bronco lettering in the grill to match the body color. How many of you have done this? Is it easy/hard and how did it turn out? Honestly, I might just send it to a body shop we use, have them tape off the letters and paint match that way, rather than popping each letter out and reattaching them. Has anyone tried that?

Anyway, let's see yours!

There are a ton of videos of people doing this on YouTube.
Personally, I think it looks great but also seems like a bit of work to drill out the letters and then reattach.
Iā€™m still gonna do it though haha.

That's what I was thinking too. I love the piano black glossy grill on the Wildtrak. But I can deal with the carbonized grey on my Black Diamond. I just want the letters to match the body color! Makes it a little more unique.

In order to do a decent job you will want to remove the letters to paint them. It's not that difficult, just take you time. If you look up my post from August you will have all the info you need.

Iā€™ve got a subtle blue theme going on mine. This is done in vinyl pinstripe tape to match my other accents. Like it a lot and now just debating to leave it as is with the vinyl tape or paint the sides of the grill letters so itā€™s more permanent. Added other pics so you see how the blue ties in.

Ohhh, I like that (and the other blue accents you've added too).

I also did not want to pop out the letters and besides just painting the letters I wanted to black out my Badlands grill to better match the overall look of my build. I taped off my letters, painted my grill and then I wanted the badlands orange accent color on the side of the letters, so I paint matched it and hand painted the sides. I then put the Stickerfab vinyl black letters on top to complete it. Lots of work and detailed taping, but I like how it turned out.

It went pretty well. Painter removed the gas cap for color-matching andā€¦. Bobā€™s your uncle:

(Of course in my ongoing tinkering I added orange stickerfabs on top of the Area 51. So many changes you can come and go with is one of my favorite thingsā€¦)
