Will this front lip affect ground clearance or scrape on speed bumps?

The Boss-style profile adds a subtle lip extension at the leading edge. Verify fitment against your current ride height and any suspension modifications before final installation. If you've lowered your vehicle, test-fit and measure clearance in your typical drive areas.

Is FRP rigid enough, or will it flex under road debris impact?

FRP construction provides excellent rigidity with controlled flex—it absorbs minor impact without cracking. This balance prevents stress fractures at the mounting points while maintaining the aggressive profile. Avoid curb strikes and heavy contact; treat it as you would any body panel.

What surface prep is needed before paint?

Sand the surface to promote adhesive bond for your chosen topcoat. Use proper surface preparation techniques before applying primer and final paint. Refer to your paint manufacturer's guidelines for grit recommendations and sealer application.
