Beachy New Ford Performance Off-Road Kit for 4-Door Broncos Goes Coastal
The newest Bronco dress-up kit, the Coastal package, brings back golden times on golden sand.
Special editions quickly become the life blood of niche vehicles like the Bronco SUV, keeping interest alive well after the initial novelty has worn off. Ford is the master—look at the Mustang lineup over the decades—and while we are trying our best to be jaded and cynical, there is something about this new Ford Performance Bronco Coastal Package that makes us want to jump into our vintage Ocean Pacific jams, crank up the Bangles and, like, head for the beach, dude.

The Coastal Package is designed for four-door Broncos, and consists of a 2-inch suspension lift and new silver wheels with matching silver grille, fender flares, and a see-through “Bimini” top with a silver bucking Bronco logo. The job is rounded out by a full-length stripe decal in chill 1980s colors.
Go on, grab Cory Feldman and head down to the beach at Malibu, where you’ll find a film crew waiting to feature you in a movie involving lots of women in bikinis. Dude!
The Coastal Package is a $5,400 kit available from Ford Performance, and it can be installed by the dealer or an ASE Red Seal–certified technician, which we presume will cost extra. (Actually, you can download the instructions and do it yourself, but then you’ll miss out on the 3 year/36,000 mile Ford Performance warranty.)
The package can be applied to any 2025 Bronco, provided that Bronco has four doors and was originally ordered in Base, Big Bend (with or without the Black Diamond Package), or Outer Banks trims, but is independent of powertrain—four or six cylinder and manual or automatic are all okay. And hey, why not? The Coastal Package is a cool theme that, like the coast itself, makes every day feel like a vacation. We’d get one.
