I have searched all over the place for yellow lettering for my 25 Bad Lands grille and tailgate. Can't find them. Etsy has some for the grille bit they look kind of cheap. Toughskinz does not have any. Any suggestions? I have Eruption Green and going for a Green Bay Packers and Howell Highlanders color scheme. Should I be looking for a custom paint shop?

HI - We ordered custom made cyber orange lettering front & back for our white 2024 Bronco Badlands from the Aspire Auto Accessories website out of California. They arrived a few weeks later & were a perfect fit... looks amazing. We did have a friend who was an experienced auto detailer put them on. GOOD LUCK!

Thank you

I used Tufskinz on my front, but instead of getting a front and back, I got two fronts. Ugh.

The point i am getting to is that I could spend money to get the correct back, or use these from Etsy. They don't come in any colors, but can be painted the specific color you want. And they are suppose to cover the entire letter, not just the top. I just ordered them. They may be something you may want to look at.

My letter overlays showed up and I installed the overlays on the rear. It was really smooth install. A couple times the adhesive film covers either pulled up some of the adhesive or in some cases, it didn't have a tag to pull up. So I had to pick at it to get it off the adhesive. But again, it was pretty easy.

I only did the front as I had just installed the tufskinz on the front a couple weeks ago. When I do install them, I will be plastidipping the overlays with matte red. But I am not in a rush.

Going to see if I have any issues with the Arizona heat, though temperatures have been nice out.

I wish I knew of these before I purchased the tufskinz. Both look great.

It didn't put the images in the right order, but the story is there.

They look really nice. I'm curious to see how they wear and work in the desert. I want to do my lift gate lettering.

Can you explain the install process? Are these full "caps" that overlay the existing lettering?

 

[ratmyr]

Yes. They fit perfectly over the existing lettering. I cleaned the surface of the original letters and then dried them off. I gave them a bit of time to fully dry as I pulled the overlays out of the packaging. I then did a quick assessment to ensure the overlays would fit on the original letters. Once that was done, I simply removed the film from the adhesive and pressed the overlays on the letters for about 10 seconds. All went well.

But yeah, would be interested to see how they will wear. If I have problems, I will post here. Thanks.

Nice! My BSBB is the same color & I was curious to see what it would look like!

It really does look nice. Will see what the Arizona heat will do. But they feel solid.

I ordered them last week... expecting delivery on Thursday. I, too, am curious about the Arizona heat... but they do look nice.

 

[HighLander]

Looks pretty good! I'll do the rear in a couple of days.

 

[ratmyr]

Looks nice. Glad I was able to help. They make it look like they were made that way.

I really do like these over the tufskinz vinyl. I haven't put mine on the front yet (painted matte red) because I did originally buy the tufskinz, and don't mind the look. But I do have plans to replace them with the overlays.

I also went through the carwash on Wednesday (brushless because I have a wheelchair lift on the back) and checked them to see if there were any problems. Everything looked fine. So I am happy with those.

Bummer

I did finally install them on the front letters... still have to do the back. Maybe this weekend.

@dwrufus53 any chance you could reach out to the seller to see if they will have more eventually, or message me their shop name?
