Can I paint over the primed finish or does it need sanding first?

The primed surface is ready for topcoat application. Light surface prep with 400-grit or higher before painting is standard practice for any paint job—check your paint manufacturer's prep guidelines.

Does this bolt straight to the factory mounting points?

Yes. This assembly uses factory mounting geometry, so it bolts in at the same points as the original. No drilling or reinforcement needed.

What hardware comes with the grille?

The assembly ships as a single unit. Confirm your vehicle's original hardware is in serviceable condition before install—you may reuse existing fasteners if they're clean and undamaged.
