Do these panels access the factory jack points?

These rocker panels sit low on the body line. Before installation, verify your vehicle's factory jack point locations are not blocked. If needed, trim the inner edge of the panel at the jack point or use a floor jack at the reinforced frame rails instead.

What prep work is needed before painting?

Sand the surface with medium-grit paper to remove the mold release agent, then wash and dry thoroughly. Apply your chosen primer and topcoat per the paint manufacturer's instructions. FRP accepts standard automotive paint systems without additional sealing or adhesion promoters.

Will these panels fit with my existing side trim or molding?

The M1 profile is designed for a clean rocker line without trim. If your vehicle has factory side molding or trim pieces, remove them before installing these panels, or confirm fitment with a mock-up. Test the front and rear edges against your doors to ensure even gaps.
