The more I see that blacked out base grill the more I like it…. I may go for the total blacked out look. Anyone else going in that direction? Tinted windows, black bead locks…

I have a Toyota pickup on 31s and I put a black grill on it long ago and blacked out the Toyota lettering. When I saw this option on the base it was a no brainer for me . I think it should be on a higher trim option because I think it looks the best lol . Yeah black on black on black on black on black is the end goal . 😆

Had my bronco over a month and I am enjoying every minute, well built, nice to drive compared to a jeep, lots of power from the v6, plenty of room, electronics work well only thing I had happen was the 12” screen stopped working I gad to disconnect the negative battery terminal, it never happened since, I reported it to the dealer, another thing is spots forming on my hood and fenders that looks like rust, I just got back from the dealer they took pictures to be sent off for a decision. It’s ridiculous why is a vehicle rusting already? I thought these broncos we’re made from aluminum. I attached some pictures. Other than that it’s been a blast!

I’ve been pretty adamant about ordering Shadow Black since I reserved. I keep reading and hearing that black is hard to keep clean/scratches/swirls/etc.

Will a ceramic coat and due diligence be the trick? I’ve always wanted a black vehicle and had to compromise various times.

Honestly, it’s not the dirt and mud I’m worried about. It’s the long term appearance of the paint itself. I tend to keep my rides for the lifetime of the vehicle and don’t want to regret it 5-10 years down the line.

I’m just not into the other colors available at the moment.
I have a Shadow Black F150. NEVER AGAIN....impossible to keep clean....looks like shit in the sun with all the swirls in the clear coat. It will look good for a few months after you buy it, but it is all downhill from there. Strongly advise you go with another color.

My Dad always told me , Nothing looks better than a clean black car , and nothing looks worse than a dirty one . It always stuck with me and at 48 years old I've still never owned a black vehicle .

Waiting on my Shadow Black Base. Build Week 8/9.

I'm going old school along these lines though I have a few stripe designs and colors to play with first.

I want mine so black that people think there is a giant void in in the space time continuum when they see me go by and they get frightened just enough to pee themselves just a drop or two.
