Can I paint each piece separately before installation?

Yes. Painting each panel before final assembly is standard practice and often easier than painting after install. Sand and prep the primer surface thoroughly, then apply your chosen finish. This approach also simplifies storage and handling during the build.

Do I need gap filler or seam tape between pieces?

Gap management depends on your specific fitment and desired finish quality. Before installation, test-fit all pieces and measure seams. Small gaps can be filled with flexible filler or sealed with trim tape during final assembly. Reference your OEM panel gaps as a benchmark for quality fitment.

Will this kit require drilling or modification to my vehicle?

Verify mounting points and fastener locations on your specific vehicle before beginning installation. FRP kits typically follow factory mounting architecture, but always inspect your vehicle's existing attachment points to confirm compatibility and determine the fasteners you'll need.
