Does this cover have fog light cutouts or will I need to drill them?

The VTX design features integrated fog light openings that align with OEM positions. Verify your bumper's existing light holes match the cover cutouts before final fitment; minor trimming may be needed depending on your vehicle's specific configuration.

Will the lower valance clear my front splitter or air dam?

The VTX valance sits lower than the OEM bumper, extending the front profile. Measure your current splitter or air dam height and compare it against the cover's depth at installation; you may need to trim or reposition lower accessories for proper clearance.

Should I sand and prep this before painting?

Yes. Sand the surface with appropriate automotive grit, clean thoroughly to remove dust, and apply your chosen primer and paint per the product manufacturer's specs. This ensures proper paint adhesion and finish consistency across the entire cover.
