Do I need to paint each piece separately?

You can paint all four pieces as a complete assembly on a work stand, or paint them individually after installation. Painting them together before install ensures color consistency and uniform finish across the entire kit.

What surface prep is needed before painting?

Sand the entire surface with appropriate grit to achieve a smooth substrate, then wipe clean of dust. Apply your chosen primer and topcoat according to the paint manufacturer's instructions. Proper prep is the key to a professional, lasting finish.

Will I need additional fasteners or gap filler for installation?

Verify mounting points and clearances on your vehicle before assembly. Depending on your install method, you may need fasteners, shims, or flexible gap sealant to achieve proper fitment. Reference your vehicle's body panels and OEM attachment points during installation planning.
