Will this grille need paint before installation?

These come in raw ABS finish. Most buyers either mask and spray them to match their truck's color, or run them as-is for a contrasting look. Prep with 220-grit if you're painting—cleans the surface without over-sanding.

Does this come with mounting hardware?

The grille assembly is included. You'll use your truck's existing fastener points, so check your OEM hardware before install—some buyers replace clips or bolts if theirs are corroded or stripped.

Can I install this myself, or do I need a shop?

Straight bolt-on job with basic hand tools—no drilling, no frame work. Remove the old grille, slide the new one in, and secure at factory points. Most owners do this in under 30 minutes.
