BN Grille Badge

Just got mine today in my renewal kit, pleasantly surprised, it's very good quality. Will let you know once I figure that out. I am thinking it might be part of my whole grille removal project to replace the Bronco lo logo with a light up LED amber one from Oracle (originally made for Big Brother...) Wish me luck, from the looks of some other online posts it will be a project!

My wife was able to fit her fingers through the grill on the Badlands from the bottom and twist in the nuts. It took about 20-30 minutes to figure out but can be done.

Anyone else install the BN badge on their Badlands grille?

I got it on my Bug Bend! Took some doin' and a tiny wrench but I got it on!!

Love it!

Nice! Would like to see one on a Badlands.

Any pictures of how the studs are routed behind the grill?

I have the same lower grill so might do it like you did.

Thanks! Really looking for Sports with the badge.

Haha, sorry. It's happened again. I didn't realize I was in the sport section.

Centered it on the last vertical piece, put the plate on and tightened the nuts

Many thanks! Nice work!

Is the badge hardware i.e., studs and back plate stainless?

If I think about it tonight, I'll get out a magnet which should tell me if it is or not. I guess there are some SS that are magnetic but most are not.

Still looking for some badges on Sports. Having recently been to Off-Roadeo Moab, the Sport hangs right in there with the big Boncos!

Also, what are the 2 extra nuts for?

I screwed the threaded rod on, then one nut on each and tightened the nut all the way to the badge to secure the rod. Then used the remaining two to secure the badge to the grill.

Glad to hear that about the Sports!

Perfect! That makes sense.

I tried mine and it looks like it will rub on the top and bottom there. I also checked mounting it below and it also rubs top and bottom.

I think BN should make a slightly smaller one to fit the BS!

This is about the only option on the 2022 Sport unless you gant to drill holes.

Does yours rub at all on the top? How exactly did you attach?
