It finally peeled off. My black bronco nation badge is now just shiny chrome.

Appears that it is actually a fairly high end acrylic overlay. Unfortunately the color Black absorbs heat. I assume that as this sat in direct sunlight it absorbed enough heat to delaminate. Sorry. (this is only guess work on my end)

Note: I had nothing to do with sourcing or creating these, but I do happen to do this for a living.

So you're saying if we got the white one, it should last longer?

No guarantee... but my experience says yes. White reflects the UV rays considerably more than Black. When black absorbs the UV rays it converts that energy to heat. Heat breaks down polymers and adhesives... So Yes White would PROBABLY last considerably longer. The durability is based on the environmental conditions and that will be different for every single one... Long way to say ... generally yes.

Be careful with the black. The heat may cause the black to peel off of the box1712096493603.png

@Sven gifted me a black one that I decided to 3m tape to the front of my winch control box.. It looks good there and adds something to the otherwise blank black plastic slab that was there before..

I noticed the White ones are back in stock @ the BN store so I ordered one to keep on hand for when the black one peels off or just starts looking bad..
