Do I need to paint each piece separately before installation?

Yes. Sand and prep each panel before applying your chosen finish. Painting off-vehicle gives you better coverage and cleaner results than spraying after install. Allow adequate cure time between coats before mounting.

Will seam tape or gap filler be required between panels?

Seam prep depends on your final installation. Clean panel edges and verify alignment before painting. If gaps remain after mounting, flexible urethane gap filler can be applied and painted to match — plan for this in your prep timeline.

Does this kit include mounting hardware and fasteners?

The kit contains the four body panels. Hardware and fasteners vary by fitment location — verify your vehicle's existing mounting points and gather fasteners rated for your specific bolt locations before assembly.
