Do I need to paint each piece separately?

You can paint them assembled or separately — painting before final installation lets you control finish consistency and catch any edge work. Paint in a well-ventilated space and allow full cure time between coats before handling or mounting.

Will the side skirts interfere with jack point access?

Before final installation, verify clearance with your vehicle's factory jack points and any aftermarket lift equipment you use. The side skirts sit low on the rocker line; measure twice to confirm adequate space for your maintenance routine.

What prep work is needed before painting?

Sand the surfaces with appropriate grit to establish paint adhesion, then clean thoroughly to remove dust and debris. Follow your chosen paint system's surface prep guidelines for best results.
