Do I need hardware or fasteners to install this grille?

The grille assembly ships as a single piece without fasteners included. Verify your vehicle's OEM mounting points and grille clips before ordering; you may need to source hardware separately or reuse existing clips from the factory grille.

How should I prep the surface before painting?

Sand and prep the entire FRP surface to remove any dust or release agent. Use a filler primer after sanding for smooth coverage, then apply your base coat and clear coat. This ensures proper paint adhesion and a professional finish.

Can I use this grille with my factory hood latch?

The grille mounts to the front bumper/support structure — not the hood. Confirm that your OEM latch and hood assembly align with the grille opening once installed. Measure the grille opening against your factory hood opening to verify fitment before final installation.
