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.

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 ?

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.

Turtle Wax Wax & Dry is great for the plastic. It's also very, very easy to use. Wash the car, spray product over entire vehicle, the dry as you normally would. Go back after drying with a dry cloth and polish.

I have water spots that I cannot get off the glass for the life of me. Any recommendations on products?

These come from mineral deposits left behind when water drops dry on the window. Water mixed with vinegar requires the least elbow grease. Put some of the solution on a terrycloth towel, wipe it on, let it set for a few minutes, then wipe off. Just be careful how much vinegar you use--no more than 50-50--and be prepared to rinse thoroughly unless you like the smell of vinegar.

There are commercial chemical products you can buy as well, but they all do the same thing as vinegar, which is to dissolve the mineral deposits.

To avoid in the future try not to let water dry on the windows. The Turtle Wax product I mentioned earlier works really well on the windows as well, and even if you don't fully dry the car after spraying it will soften the water enough to prevent water spots.

Vinegar and other remedies didn’t work. I went and bought some Chemical Guys water spot remover just now and it took them off the glass in 30 seconds. Should have just bought it a long time ago.

Interesting. I've never experienced water spots that wouldn't come off with vinegar. It usually dissolves them in just a few seconds. Glad you got it figured out.
