Do I need to paint each piece separately or can I assemble first?

Paint each panel individually before final assembly. This ensures even coverage on all edges and crevices, and prevents paint runs on seams during cure. Once dry, pieces bolt together using factory points with no gaps.

What prep work is required before painting?

Sand the surface with fine-grit sandpaper to scuff the finish, then wash thoroughly with soap and water to remove dust. This creates proper adhesion for your topcoat. FRP accepts most automotive paints — use your chosen finish system per manufacturer instructions.

Will side skirts interfere with jack points or ground clearance?

Side skirts sit flush with the rocker line and do not obstruct factory jack points — verify clearance on your specific vehicle before installing. Ground clearance remains at factory levels; inspect fitment during dry fitting to confirm proper alignment.
