Does this require the center piece to look complete?

Yes — this is the side piece set only and is designed to work with the center diffuser section. Order both components to achieve the full Zeta diffuser look at the rear.

What prep work is needed before I paint?

Sand the surface to promote paint adhesion, then clean away any dust. Once prepped, you're ready to apply primer and your color coat of choice.

Can I install this myself?

Installation difficulty depends on your setup and whether you're replacing factory trim or adding to bare bumper. Refer to your vehicle's service manual or contact the manufacturer for specific mounting points and fastener requirements.
