Will this diffuser scrape on driveways or steep inclines?

The Gilda rear diffuser adds minimal extension to the rear bumper line. Check your vehicle's existing ground clearance at the rear lip before installing, and test your typical driving routes — driveways with steep angles may require cautious approach angles depending on your suspension setup.

What prep work is needed before painting?

Sand the primer surface lightly with fine-grit sandpaper to ensure proper paint adhesion, then clean thoroughly to remove all dust and contaminants. Your paint supplier can recommend the specific primer and topcoat system for FRP — primers formulated for plastic substrates will yield the best finish and longevity.

Are mounting brackets or hardware included?

The diffuser assembly is included. Verify mounting point locations and hardware requirements against your vehicle's rear bumper structure — some installations may require fasteners or brackets from your existing bumper hardware or aftermarket suppliers based on your specific setup.
