Do I need to paint each piece separately before installation?

You can paint before or after installation — both methods work. Painting individual pieces off the car gives you cleaner edges and easier handling. If you install first, mask carefully around seams and panel gaps before spraying. Either approach is fine; choose based on your workspace and comfort level.

What's included in the 6-piece kit?

The kit contains six FRP body panels in X-5 style configuration. Check your vehicle's specific bay and rocker area before ordering to confirm all pieces fit your modification goals — some builders customize panel fitment based on their suspension or widebody plans.

Will I need seam tape or gap filler between the panels?

Gaps depend on how square your mounting points are and how tightly you bolt everything down. Most builders use flexible seam sealant or gap filler along panel joints for a finished look and water protection. Have some on hand during install so you can address gaps as they appear.
