Yes this is specifically why I did not choose to BAP my Hot pepper red XLT. I think the interior looks very fun and quirky, and the light colors help give the cabin an airy feel. I don’t like black interiors on cars so I’m biased, I think they look boring and less spacious.

If you poke around in here, people have figured out you can use Zep to essentially turn your tail lights and headlights and 3rd brake light into BAP housings by stripping the chrome off. This is my plan to get the look on the outside of the BAP but the standard interior.
I’m planning on black/bronze wheels eventually so I will definitely have all the colors
bronze would look fantastic on HPR

Ideally something like this, although maybe 17s not 18s (sorry OP, I am derailing the thread now)

You’ve convinced me. Spending BAP/lux money on wheels. Jk. Maybe.

Love that my Tremor is BAP'd out.

The dark interior mixed with the blues harkens back to an early 90s F-Series truck for me and that is an awesome feel.

If you are already up getting LUX then yes. I was gonna order it for my ‘24 but now that LUX is required I won’t. I live in the south and don’t need all the heated stuff. $4k on this truck is not worth it to me. But I do wish I would have sprung for it on my current one.

Love my BAP interior as well especially mixed with the grey wood trim kit from Mus. Also love the LED surround of the taillights.

I have HPR with basic XLT interior and it looks GREAT. Had a BAP HPR pull next to me as we were leaving. Ended up talking to the lady who loved how mine looked and the color contrast from interior to exterior. She had a very nice BAP, but I prefer mine any day, BAP was almost too dark imo.

I like the look of the standard seats/interior. I would assume it’s not super complimentary with hot pepper red.

I’d rather actually get a truck built, so I left it off.

With how initial orders went this time around, I’m reconsidering to BAP.
Thoughts?

Edit: it appears BAP now requires lux for XLT…so 4K more total. I don’t much care for the lux, so that’s a bit irritating.
I feel that if you can spare the cash, you won't be disappointed with BAP

I really do prefer the basic color scheme over the BAP. The one I drove had the basic. Good to hear you are enjoying it on the HPR. From photos and the builder it seems fine to me. And whoever mentioned that the brighter colors make it seem more spacious is spot on. Same thing with interior paint on a house.

Picked up my new Hybrid Lariat BAP today, in cyber orange. All in all, I like the BAP with the cyber orange. Very pleased with it.
I was so sad cyber orange was dropped. Saw a mav in person with it and it’s so nice. Enjoy!

Honestly man, HPR is the best color scheme with the XLT interior. Blue interior tint perfectly offsets the orange HPR. The interior orange highlights are just subtle enough that it plays well with the HPR as well. I was lucky enough to view the 12 or so that were delivered to my dealer and am very thankful I changed colors 3-4 times lol.

OP mentioned a 4K hit for XLT Lux and BAP. If you like it that 4k works out to little over $80.00 a month for4 year note. Do you want to pay the 80 dollars or go out to your Maverick every day and think coulda, woulda, shoulda.

I got that option on mine, which also let me go up to a Lariat. I have received several positive comments. No way I was gonna have brown seats.
