Looks amazing.. I've been thinking about doing this. How was the process/time?

Just realized I never responded. It was not hard at all, probably a half day with a few beer breaks. But the outcome was amazing. A few things I have noticed a few months in now......
1) Dust doesn’t stick to the paint the way it use to now, seems ceramic is better for that vs wax.

2) Washing it has become faster as most stuff just comes off with the water/rinse

3) Shine is pretty significantly deeper

Overall very impressed.

Need to bring this back up, just recently redid my seats. Found a brand new set of OEM take off covers on eBay, and had the center of the seats covered in grey suede, then installed. Super pleased with the results. Pics need to come......

Did you have your wheels color matched to the fenders or is that an "off the shelf" color? Looks good. I'm thinking of doing the same thing.

They are off the shelf, that’s one of the reasons I chose those exact wheels. Thanks!!

Hey TCM, how did you mount your front license plate?

Side note, I used to drool over your bronco back in the day on GFB... it was the bronco my bronco wanted to be when it grew up for sure. :headbang:

Hey Brad! a thanks man I appreciate that. The bronco brought me many years of happiness.

The Lic plate, don’t hate me but I used two zip ties with some small existing holes that are in the body. I don’t always have the plate on, only when I got to Mexico because I need it to cross back into the states.

Man just realized how long it’s been since I updated this thread. Have done some stuff.

Let’s start with the seats, found a brand new set of oem leather covers on eBay, jumped on them, and had them installed. While doing so added Alcántara inserts in the middle to make it slightly unique and custom.

Next up, a set of Cmburg Lower Contral arms to match the uppers. SVC Tie rods too.
