Do all five pieces need to be painted separately or as an assembly?

Each panel should be sanded and prepped individually before painting. This ensures proper adhesion and a uniform finish across all pieces. Paint them separately for best results, or group them by work area depending on your spray setup.

Will this kit require professional installation?

The kit is designed for installation with basic hand tools. Verify that all factory mounting points align with your vehicle's existing holes and hardware before fastening. If you're unfamiliar with body panel alignment, professional installation is recommended to ensure proper fitment and finish.

Are seam fillers or gap tape required between the panels?

That depends on your fitment preferences. Check the panel-to-body gaps once mounted. If visible gaps exist, automotive seam tape or filler applied during the prep stage will create a seamless appearance before painting.
