What did you do to your Bronco today?

DadChris44

Just latest pics, just had it ceramic coated. She look different in different light. Saturday RoxBlox mud flaps and the hydraulic hood hinges.
Lots of little things like the vinyl on my tailgate Ford logo to match all the Black and Blue motif. Gosh still kicking myself in the head for not ordering the rock rails. Will call the dealership and get an order put in for those as I already have the rock rail steps but no rock rails

Love it!

What ceramic coat did you have done and how much did it cost? I want to take mine directly from the dealer to get it coated.

It was a mixture of ceramic and graphine. I got two bids, One was $1400 and then I found a friend of a friend deal for $800. They even took the wheels off to do the inside. Did all the plastic parts including the MIC roof. They had it a total of 3 Loooong days.

I just saw that our little things on the side that has our info also states our member number. I missed 5150 by 38...darn it.

Your friend of a friend deal sounds good. Do you recall the brand they used and the quoted life span. I'm getting quotes in the $1500 to $2000 range.

Hit 21k miles, and the speed limiter.

Story behind the latter: I'm driving down the highway, Bus is hogging the left lane, so I swing right to pass it, and I can't, oh well. This 45-55yo nutjob gets offended, and starts honking so I notice him only to flip me off, I return the favor, and now he's just going full raped ape, throwing up middle fingers, where eventually I wave to mock him after blinding him with my lights.
He didn't like it, so now if there's an opening, he goes top speed so I can't pass or if I could pass thanks to the car next to him, he slows so they're neck and neck, and worst of all, he runs his windshield washer to mess with my windshield/try and blind me.
What a POS, finally pass him while hitting top speed, I screw with him a bit attempting to brake check him, but I'm already like 5 car lengths ahead of him, but I sent a message, so that's good enough. He can be all offended and crazy he wants, end of the day, I'm driving a nicer car while being younger, and I didn't instigate things to begin with, so don't care.

It's basically a full moon out, so all the crazies are out

Time to go back to the future so I can take care of that

Ill get the brand name but the ceramic was 5 years and the graphine was 7.

The brand is Auto Envy Onyx Graphine coating

One of my first accessories, after I take delivery of my Bronco, will be the best forward/rearward dashcams money can buy. In my "downtime," I watch a LOT of YouTube videos of bad drivers. Getting ready to reenter the world as a driver after not having a car for so long. It'll be interesting, to say the least!

Picked it up at the dealership!!! 2022 black diamond non sas, 2.3, manual with advanced 4x4, roof rails and tow.

Looks great!

Added GOAT Fabrication pinch seam cover plates.

Installed the Sticker Fab/21 Offroad mudflaps.
All the components are well made and solid. Came with black hardware and stainless. I like the length of these plus they were under $200 shipped, so way cheaper than a lot of other options. But the instructions were a joke and the youtube video is equally a mess. I'm going to try and rewrite the inductions and attach them when I get a chance. Btw, if you buy these get extra fasteners from the hardware store first.

Got confirmation of my order update from green ‘22 2dr base v6 Sasquatch to red ‘23 2dr heritage v6...now in for longer wait...now I need to get a copy of COVP notice so Ford doesn’t cancel my order...

Took a long drive, including doing the Young road from Heber to Miami. Did a little easy off-roading.

Yesterday we were out cruising the back roads of Vermont.
