I was wondering this too. As of right now however, I don't believe its an option.
I would love to hear that the dealer is putting them, on after arrival. Might lead me more towards having a paint job pre attachment.

So I talked to my Ford dealer Monday and again today on this. They told me they wanted to confirm that this was a vinyl sticker or if it's painted on. (I told them I believe it's a sticker based off shots in the Bronco forums.) If so, they think they can remove at the dealer. (I'm just worried about damaging the paint.) They are also finding out if a note can be passed to the factory to not apply them. (They told me that this is most likely not going to be an option.) So I'm back to either being stuck with them or trying to remove at dealer for now.

No worries... removing vinyls doesn’t damage paint. If anything, having them on during shipping protects the paint. I had to remove my old vinyls on my mustang before replacing them (did it myself to save $$). It was easy and bug remover spray you would use on the front of your car removes any leftover stickiness with no damage. My experience, anyway.

Agree with Packman...
I had an IROC-Z (dating myself) and hated the tape stripes. Just a MILD heat gun/hair dryer softened them up. Barely any heat needed at all when they are brand new. They will come right off and probably little residue left.

Personally I'm digging the FE decals. Definitely keeping mine on.

Agreed. I had a pretty solid vinyl wrap put on the roof of my Mustang. It was cheap, so it warped in the hot/cold temperatures and cracked. I used a hair dryer and it came off easily.
