What did you do TO your Bronco Sport today?

[Jmuns]

Got a 1UP Quik Rack off Facebook Marketplace for $200!!!! What a score today. It's an older style so it doesn't have the extra security bolt slot in front of the expander ball screw but that's fine. I'll just use a U-lock or thick cable lock as a deterrent.

Today I paid it off! Financed as I got zero percent interest rate, and today was the final payment date — yaaaay.

It’s a great feeling, isn’t it? I went about 6 months without a car payment before buying the BS. Beware…the itch starts soon after you make the final payment. Then your eye starts to wander. Then you start joining car forums to learn more about a vehicle you saw on the road or in an advertisement. And before you know it, you’re making car payments again. It’s a sickness…

Yeah, I’ve had that sickness most of my life . . . “But this time it’ll be different” <lmfao>

Last night, decided to put some cheap plastic covers over the Bronco letters, front and rear. I originally liked the white letters, it looked retro to me, but I’ve got no white besides the letters. I’ll probably do something better looking if I wanna stick with black letters. Then after work, walked out to see this nice little gathering in the parking lot.

@ErikaFrzn which covers did you choose? They look good far away, how do they look up close?
I got the tough skinz overlays even though I'm not really sold on them.

They are from EBay that other members have mentioned. They are ok, not a perfect fit. Some cover the letters completely and others leave a sliver of white peaking out. You can see a bit of this in the front, especially on the “O”. It’s not much but something i noticed. These are the best pics up close atm.

gotcha they don't look bad, I just don't know if I hate the white letters enough, and its a little bit of work to swap the letters on the grille completely with the black factory lettering which would be the cleanest. lining up the rear hatch would be easier than the front, but still take some time.

Hey Dean looks great brother! Just purchased my very first Bronco Sport went with the top trim. Those tires look perfect on yours I noticed they're the Wrangler Territory R/T what size are they? and have you done any lift kits or anything? Debating on getting those or the Falken Wild Peak A/T Trail

I love red on black, most people do but since the badlands badges are orange I'm thinking of sticking with the black and orange theme. I have some pretty rad vinyl graphics I plan to put on the hood and maybe the sides. I just love customizing this truck. I got a sweet metal badlands badge to put on the gate, let me know what y'all think.

The ToughSkinz can look great, but you have to get rid of the stock letters.

@Meanderthal yup I remember seeing how you did yours. Best looking version out there I think. Nice and flush. Honestly I probably won't use them.

Thanks. The tires are the Goodyear Wrangler Workhorse A/T in 245/65/17 with no lift. They fit perfect with no rubbing. I went with the Goodyear's over the Falken's because the Goodyear's were lighter.

Put 245/65R17 on a matching wheel in as my spare. Everything I store in the back still fits, though as others have said I did remove the insulation pad. Not sure about the tire hold-down, will have to check it out further . . . but as tight a fit as the spare is it would take a hell-of-a bump to cause it to
bounce around <lol>. Did this in prep for new 235/70R17’s that are on order; went w/Firestones as the Wrangler AT’s are being discontinued

UPDATE 4/25/25:
Decided to check the spare mounting and pressure yesterday (I seem to always be late posting <lol>). I found that the spare ”slipped” in the other day, but I couldn’t begin to get it out today, no matter how I tried. Finally figured out that with 33lbs or more pressure the weight of the spare would allow it to drop in, but would wedge itself into the cavity. Lowering the pressure to 25-25lbs gives just enough clearance to actually get it out — who knew ?.
Not a problem for me as the little “rattle” I was hearing was the air pump in there with the spare; got it all taken care of now. ?
