I added in the rubberized floor liners. They fit great. Also put on a Thule T2 Pro XTR bike rack which works perfectly.

This is awesome abd I want to switch mine out. But I’m totally new to this stuff. What website? What size? Or info do I need to look for?
I have a badlands too.

Just a quick dress-up thing, but like many other Ford owners, I'm not a big fan of the factory lug nuts, especially after a particularly annoying experience on the side of a freeway once where the little metal cap stripped off while trying to change a flat.

I've had very good luck with VMS Lug Nuts on my other cars and treated my Badlands to a set of red ones:

These are an exact fit in red (although other colors are available):

VMS 20 RED 44MM ALUMINUM CLOSED END TUNER LUG NUTS LUGS WHEELS RIMS 12X1.5 SET | eBay

One thing to keep in mind with aluminum lug nuts is that you absolutely want to want to hand-tighten them on. I've had a couple of bad experiences with dealerships that apparently believed an impact wrench is the solution to every nut/bolt.

Make sure you torque those new lug nuts to spec and they’re the proper size. Bad things can happen, “I thought you torqued them down?”

Looks very cool man. I'm in the market to lower my cargo basket with new crossbars. I currently have the OEM ones, but they sit very high and seem quite loud because of it. Have you noticed much more additional wind noise with this set up?

Yes there is more wind noise with the rack. However, I am only using it when I travel long distances with the family. My bars are very easy to remove while the rack is mounted to it.

The moonroof will stick up above Badlands roof rails by 32mm, and above Base/BB/OB roof rails by 44mm when fully open. The tallest point of the glass will be at about the middle of the middle rail support.
Mine clears just fine and it is the OEM on outerbanks.

Its great seeing what everyone else has done to their Bronco. The production date for my BS was just pushed back from May 17 to May 31. Once I get her, I plan to install the rear bumper cover, front and rear dash cams, all weather floor mats, Rough Country LED light bar (on top), Rough Country nudge bar with lighting across the front and I'm flirting with the idea of doing a 1-1/2" lift to it. Can't wait to post pics. Has anyone installed or used the Ford sill plates before? If so, how would you rate them? They're in my cart currently at Levittown Ford but I'm on the fence about whether to get them or not. Last thing I plan to do to my BS is a paint change. I LOVE the Bikini Pearl color that Jeep used on their Wranglers. I first saw the color in Clearwater FL, so we now refer to it as "Clearwater Jeep". I've read that Jeep has discontinued this color, so hopefully that makes it easier for me to get it.
