Will this interfere with the trunk seal or lid clearance?

The VT-X profile sits below the trunk line and doesn't extend into the seal zone. Verify your bumper gap before final mounting — uneven bumper fitment can sometimes cause contact. A straight edge across the rear body panel confirms clearance.

Can I install this with adhesive instead of drilling?

This diffuser is designed around the factory bolt holes for maximum structural support under highway speeds. Adhesive alone is not recommended. Use the mounting points provided and fasteners rated for your bumper material to ensure stability.

What surface prep do I need before painting?

Sand the FRP panel and prep the surface before applying your chosen finish. Refer to your paint supplier's recommendations for primer and topcoat compatibility with FRP substrates — finishes vary widely by system.
