Do I need to paint each piece separately before installation?

You can paint the kit before or after installation — both methods work. Painting before installation gives you cleaner seams and easier handling of individual panels. Painting after is faster if you prefer a single-stage finish across the entire kit.

What prep work is required before painting?

Sand and prep the surface per your chosen paint system's instructions. Most FRP kits benefit from a light scuff and primer application to ensure paint adhesion and a uniform finish across all four pieces.

Will I need additional trim pieces or gap fillers between the body kit panels and OEM body?

Check fitment at the seams between the kit panels and your existing body panels during a dry fit. Most installations require minor surface prep or adhesive at connection points — refer to your vehicle's OEM body gaps for reference and plan accordingly during assembly.
