Do I need to paint each piece separately before installation?

Painting before installation is the standard approach — it ensures even coverage and easier masking of mounting surfaces. You can also paint after assembly if you mask off fitment lines carefully. Either method works; plan based on your workspace and spray setup.

Will the side skirts clear my jack points?

Side skirt design preserves OEM jack point access on this model. Verify clearance on your specific vehicle before final installation, as aftermarket suspension or body modifications may affect ground clearance.

What prep is needed before I paint the kit?

Sand the surface with your preferred grit to create tooth for paint adhesion, then wipe clean of dust. Refer to your paint system's technical data sheet for any additional primer or sealer recommendations specific to FRP substrates.
