Front Grill Protector Ideas

Oct 17, 2024

Heyyyyyy! I have a 2023 4 door Badlands and I'm looking for ideas to protect the front grill, etc. I commute over two mountain passes weekly, and we live in an area with A LOT of deer and elk. I'm wondering if I should get a Brush Bar or Grill Protector or whatever they are called. I would love it if it did not cover up the "Bronco" logo, which I have seen some do. Any advice would be greatly appreciated! 😊

I’m only going to reply to one of these… I am in the same basket as you and currently shopping. For a BL with Mod bumper, In addition to what’s above,

IAG and Turn Off-road offer economical options:

Westin and JCR are more pricey, but wider and with more coverage:

Good luck!

Thanks for your advice and ideas. I decided I need a beefier and stronger bumper along with the brush Bar, etc.

Bought this one before I got my Bronco for the same reason the OP wants one. Bolted up no fuss no muss. Lucky, have not needed it...

If you don't have the modular bumper this will work and doesn't block the BRONCO script. But deer and elk will obliterate any bar, they smash up big rigs on impact. The best approach is prevention I have had great success with these little devices. They seem silly but they do work. https://www.extremeterrain.com/roug...e-bar-with-4-inch-round-led-lights-51049.html

Thanks for the reply and ideas. I dont care how silly they look, I'm going to slap those on my Badlands! Lol!

Not sure the advice that you have the modular bumper is correct.
My '23 BL SAS came with the capable bumper which does not have a lot of options.
Better check which one you have before ordering anything.

Thanks! I did check and I have the "Plastic" bumper. Plastic and deer/elk don't sound good together, so will now actually replace the whole bumper.

I think @Kenneth has a great looking bumper and bought it for the same reasons you are looking for one.
