I recently purchased one of these Bronco Nation Grille Badges. I was blown away by the quality. It's just beautiful! I usually ramble on about not wanting to buy anything for my Bronco until it's been delivered. Apart from a front license plate relocation bracket, this is the only thing I've actually purchased for my Bronco to date. I guess I couldn't resist.

The construction and finish is incredible. It's very beefy and should hold up for years. The packaging rivals that of any Apple product, so you can be sure it will arrive intact and ready to install. All hardware is included. What better way to show others that you're a member of the Bronco Nation? I'm sure it will elevate your ownership experience; it will signal that you are part of a big Bronco-loving family. And no, I'm not being paid to say all this. I simply want to share my enthusiasm over this product. Get yours!

That's cool. Granted, it's a leap of faith to get one of these without having a car to attach it to, but there's no turning back now. I've GOT to get a Bronco! :geek:

Awesome! So worth it. I’ve seen them on a couple of members rides and they seem pleased with the build quality. It’s got heft. I’m even going to repurpose the box it came in once I install mine. There’s a thread or two here about installation methods. Check ‘em out!

I believe they are part of the premium membership package now. (y)
So if anyone was thinking of only doing the electronic membership and purchase one of these, the premium may make sense.

Good call. I’m not sure if the one that is included with Premium Membership is exactly the same, however. As I recall, there was a discussion about reversing the colors so it would feature a black background with chrome reliefs. I’ll look for it.

It’s the only thing I have purchased for my Bronco as well. It is built very well. I think the Bronco will turn to dust before the badge. So in 40 years my kids will have a nice badge and a rusty Bronco

I didn’t get it with my membership package because the images online made me feel like it was kind of cheap looking. I got to handle one at the Off-Roadeo and it totally changed my mind. It does have some heft! I will order one when my Bronco arrives.

I tried to install it Sunday afternoon but I don't have enough room to get to the rear backing plate, much less tighten the nuts. Then the backing plate fell and it's somewhere in the lower grille assembly. Oh well, just use it as a paperweight until I can figure something out.

I'm sorry you had a mishap. I think you may need to pull the grill away from the front end sheetmetal to properly affix the backing plate. I will post a link to the process as soon as I find one. Perhaps you can retrieve the backing plate to complete the installation at a later date.

Check this out, @Patriot. I'm sorry I can't speak from personal experience since I don't have my Bronco yet, but this installer enjoyed success, although he does offer some warnings.

I installed grille badges today not to bad. Unless you are going to pull the grille all the way off just put the badge on the upper right hand side as you look at it. The how to video posted here on BN is pretty good, but it glosses over the most important part. If you plan on removing the whole grille for any reason, you need to be extremely careful disconnecting the wiring harnesses. The small release tabs will snap off even when being careful. Not saying I broke a tab, but I know a guy….and that guy was being super careful….🤬
