Will this interfere with my front bumper or splitter?

The under-bumper design positions the lip below the factory bumper line. Before ordering, verify your current bumper height and any existing splitter geometry so the lip clears both components at full compression and rebound.

Should I drill through the panel or use adhesive to secure it?

This piece is designed for mechanical fastening (bolts or self-tapping fasteners) through pre-drilled or marked mounting points. Adhesive alone is not recommended for front-end components that experience vibration and wind load. Confirm your preferred fastener type before installation and ensure proper spacing to avoid stress concentration.

What prep work does the clear coat need?

The factory clear coat is applied during production. Before installation, inspect the surface and sand lightly if needed to remove any shipping dust or debris. After bolting on, the clear coat protects the weave from UV damage without additional treatment, though you can apply additional protective coatings if desired.
