Not sure what thread to put this on but i did drive by this today. So my local jeep dealer has been building this for a couple of weeks. They put foam and boards against the back of the guard rail and then poured concrete all over their parking lot. Today when i was going to work i realized they were making a jeep grill out of concrete and then painted it. When i got home today they parked trucks on it. just thought i would share.

This would have looked SO much better if they had left the grill "rock" colored and simply mimicked the shape of it. As it stands it looks really cheaply spray painted and tacky.

I replaced my big bend's headlights to LED bulbs, I did not realize how yellow halogen lamps are until I compared them to the LEDs. The beam pattern from the LEDs is very tight to the front of the truck and high beams do a very good job of Illuminating the road further away.

I'd like to read more of how you did this. I thought the headlights were sealed and only replaced/upgraded as an entire unit? Also, I know that the non-Signature lighting option has halogen tails. All my time here and I never knew that the non-Signature headlights were halogen. I just always assumed they were LED but just a different pattern (no halo and intersecting horizontal bar).

I found them on ebay...they are OEM fender badges...I got super lucky with these as they were new from a dude that never used them on his Gen 3 Bronco. When I got them, there seemed to be other options, just not in the best condition. My recommendation is you start there and just keep looking until you find the ones you want.

Underground Graphics...they have this 5-stripe option and a three stripe option with a few different styles and colors. Pricing and customer service is great too.

Dropped it off at the dealership to have some minor issues looked at. Drivers window doesn't seem to go down as far as the others, and seems loose in the half open position, passenger rear window doesn't drop as fast as others and gets caught on weather strip and drivers side soft top window looks like it's frayed.

UPDATE: Dealer just called, they said they saw the issues and had to send Ford emails and pictures and are waiting to see what Ford tells them to do....So going to have to bring it back probably next week

That's what I thought. AFAIK, the 6G headlights (signature and non-signature) are LEDs. The obvious difference is the style between the two. I also thought they were sealed units. Now, the non-signature lights do have halogen tails. @BudgetBronco did a video where he upgraded the bulbs to LEDs on the taillights.

That is right, some lower trim models have halogen bulbs in the tail lights, one bulb for reverse and one bulb that serves both brake and turn light. In my video linked here I changed the reverse bulb only to LED, because I have read that doing the same with the brake/turn bulb causes flickering.
