Can I paint each piece separately before installation?

Yes. Painting individual components before assembly allows better coverage and easier handling. Sand and prep the primer surface, then apply your chosen finish to each piece. Let cure fully before handling or mounting.

Do I need gap filler or seam tape between the pieces and OEM bodywork?

Gap filler is recommended where the new panels meet factory body lines to create a clean transition and prevent dirt buildup. Standard automotive seam sealer or flexible gap filler works well; apply during final assembly before painting the entire kit as a system.

Will I need to drill new holes, or do these use factory mounting points?

Reference your vehicle's OEM bumper and side skirt attachment points before installation. Existing factory holes may require enlargement or new fastener placement depending on kit design. Dry-fit all pieces first to confirm alignment and fastener locations.
