Do I need to remove the factory bumper to install this?

Yes — this is a cover that replaces the factory fascia. You'll need to remove the OEM bumper cover first, then bolt this one in place using the existing mounting points.

Can I paint this before installation?

Painting before install works fine. The primer-ready finish accepts paint without additional prep. Install after paint has fully cured to avoid chips during the mounting process.

Will this fit if I have a front bumper sensor or park assist module?

Mounting method assumes factory sensor locations are preserved. If your truck has front parking sensors, test-fit before final fastening to confirm clearance around sensor areas.
