You're good to go then. It just looked lower than mine. Now if only my door windows were legal. New York doesn't allow any tint on them. View attachment 36974
There is a reason for that...a police officer has to be able to see the driver when they approach the car. I for one would not want to approach a driver I cannot see due to dark tint. No telling what that driver could have in their hands.

Took off OEM roof bars and put on the rhino rack bars. Wanted more of a low profile, the OEMs I think were like 8in off the roof. Plus a bit of overhang for future mounts (awning). I like the looks much more as well ?
For anyone looking to carry significant weight on the roof this is a worthy upgrade. The farther away from a vehicle's center of gravity the more effect weight has. Even a few inches at the very top of the vehicle can have a big impact on vehicle stability.

I agree! That's why I only have 30%. It's lighter than the back section. I watch enough Police shows to know enough to roll down my window and keep my hands in plain sight if I'm ever stopped.

I kept looking at that wondering how that part is supposed to stick there with that protrusion. I just went out to my Bronco and saw the hole! I had no idea. haha Why would Ford make the hole and not put in a 30 cent part to fill it? Or is it there for something else too?
Early models probably had the pen/pencil clip installed. They stopped adding it just like the engine cover, hood insulation pad, illuminated cup holders, under glovebox dash pad and a few more. Anything to cut costs.

Would you hold up a production line because you couldn't get a pencil holder for the center console?

Roll your window down. Turn on the lights. Hand them your ID. This is pretty standard stuff. Even without tinted windows I’ve never waited to roll down my window when being pulled over.

And be respectful. It can go a long way.

did nothing to the bronco today other than drive it....
but we did sell our 2015 mustang GT last night. sad to see it go.

in a couple weeks planning on getting PPF done on the front, roof, and hood.
also the windshield (yea they have film for that now...) on the bronco, and then on the Edge...
i could take a picture when its done but you wouldnt see it! HAHA!

will try and save and look into buying a 24 full size bronco next year...if they bring back the manual....

Now that forum members are getting some Bronco Sports to own and love, I thought it would be cool to begin a thread that is often found on other enthusiast boards.

Got your hands a bit dirty working on your Little Bronco recently? Dressed it up? Did a detail? Or how about a mod? Give us a quick post, show us some pics. Share what you are doing to make your Sport uniquely yours.

I’ll kick off with a few items myself to get things started and hopefully we can keep the thread going.
Added Thule mounted on Yakima aero crossbars. Surprised how thin the plastic is on the Thule.

OEM bars will be for sale if anyone is interested. Will sell for cheap.

Yeah man they are the Raceline Compass. You can get them from our discount tire rep on here or just quick google search. 17x8 with a 30mm offset so it gives it some nice protrude. They have a simulated beadlock ring and you can remove those outer bolts. Actually just ordered some bronze ones from Raceline

Had an afternoon open today and it wasn’t too hot so I had a chance to wash the BS today. Washed, applied Turtle Wax Graphene Flex Wax, and then applied Meguiars 3 in 1 wax to the black trim to try and remove water spots I’ve had since delivery. It took a couple coats but I’ve removed almost all of them from the sides. I have to work on the roof some more. One coat didn’t do too much.

The graphene spray wax did bring the plastic bumpers back to life quite a bit. I should have taken some before pics but I didn’t. My car lives outside so it takes a lot of sun abuse.
