Does this cover the factory fog lights or sensor cutouts?

This bumper is a full cover panel. Before installation, verify your vehicle's OEM cutout locations and mark them on the FRP surface. You can carefully cut or drill the necessary openings to match your existing fog light and sensor positions using appropriate tools.

What prep is needed before paint?

Sand the surface to your preferred grit, then clean and degrease thoroughly. Follow your paint system's requirements for primer and topcoat application — FRP accepts standard automotive finishes without special additives.

Will this bolt directly to the factory bumper brackets?

This bumper uses factory mounting points. Check your vehicle's OEM bracket spacing and fastener locations before assembly to ensure alignment. Minor drilling or bracket modification may be needed depending on your specific setup.
