My first mod was tinting the front windows on my 2dr. I get migraine headaches and the tint helps. I also got heated seats installed by Ford. Getting the manual I didn't have the option with my Black Diamond for the package from the factory. I really want some mudflaps before we get snow again but still haven't found ones I like. Hood struts are a must and they are easy to install. I also got the steps from IAG that bolt to the factory rockrails.

Get yourself some Bartact grab handles. They make getting in and out of the bronco much easier and they are great to hang onto while wheeling.

Those are cool, I’ll add them to the list. The steps look good.

I have a long list of items where I have just started to slim down into first things and longer term items. Here are some of them.

Quick List:
1. Bartact grab handles in Dozer Yellow to match Badlands (Perviously noted by @SlashRacer)
2. BJD soft top window bag to hold all the windows when they are removed from the rear.
3. Slipstream security enclosure for rear of Bronco by Diabolical Inc
4. BYOD attachment. Maker to be determined.
5. IAG hood and soft top struts.
6. JCR Consul molle panel, rock sliders, tube doors, and maybe more
7. Baja Designs lighting
8. ARB front and rear bumpers
Click to expand...
That’s a great list.

Like most on here I had a pretty big list while I was waiting to take delivery, but due to "the state of our economy" (I know no politics) I've decided to not spend the cash I had set aside for "upgrades". Hell I have not even had mine off road yet, don't feel like spending
the coin, and I live with in 50 miles of 2 4x4 parks.

So I just did the Mandatory updates:
1. Mud flaps; I did the old $30 AutoZone's with hose clamps to the crash bar
2. Tinted windows; cause all black vehicles MUST have tinted windows
3. Speaker replacement ; Got the JBL club series, huge difference from stock, but lacks bass, Sub is going to have to wait
and lastly
4. Seat Armour SA100FORB Black 'Ford' Seat Protector Towel a must with MGV

My first mod was to ceramic coat. I have the Ford side steps so not in a rush to get mud flaps. Next major buy was Ford Performance lights and Rigid dual mounts for mirror location. Other minor purchases are back seat cover (dog), paracord pulls, carrier for soft top windows, lift kit for soft top. Then Yakima rear carrier with basket. Have 4 door Wildtrack.

My first ones that I will install are intended to stop scratches like door sill protectors, screen protector and the front mud flaps.
I need to make/design some. I haven't seen a mudflap style that I like so far.

Yeah, I hear you. I don't really like the looks of any them either but like the Rokblokz are removable so I went with them.

I love the look of my Rokblokz. Gives the Bronco a meaty stance.

Did you go for both front and rear? I only went with fronts for now.

Most Important Mod, if you're a truly serious 'Froader: REAL custom rock sliders, not steps, and welded to the frame, not just bolted to the pinchseam and floor (like the factory pretend rock rails). First serious run after I got them, they saved me big bucks on body repairs. Best $2500 I have spent on mods yet! Pics attached. Note the rusty rock gouges. That would have been expensive to fix sheet alum otherwise.

Both. I don’t want to throw rocks at people following me.

I still get an occasional stone hit. They also cut back on the snow on the rear fender flare, but it does not stop it. Mud flaps are needed.

They do make getting in and out of the bronco a lot easier.

Bronco Nation membership, window tint on front windows to match the back, Door sill plates, cargo area enclosure, tailgate molle bag/straps, tailgate table (third party), Bronco first aid kit, Bronco roadside and off road assistance kits, in floor rear vault,
Ford Performance NOCO GB-540 Battery Jump Start Pack, camping gear, Bluetooth discman(thanks for nothing Ford), dirt and outdoor adventure, axle back next up and anxiously awaiting a tune or performance pack for the 2.3 L. Has plenty of power but enough is never enough.

I had my dealership put on the mud flaps and the floor and cargo liners for free. Lucky me. :cool:

How do you like the rear floor vault? I have the tailgate Molle bag/straps too, were you able to put the tailgate table on at the same time?
