Can I paint each panel separately before installation?

Yes. Paint and cure each piece individually before fitting — this gives you better control over finish quality and lets panels fully harden before mounting. Just mask off mounting surfaces before primer and paint to maintain clean contact points.

Do I need gap filler or seam tape between panels?

Depends on your fitment preference. Factory mounting points are aligned for tight panel gaps, but lightweight FRP can flex slightly during install. Some builders use adhesive-backed trim tape along seams for a finished look — others leave gaps clean. Test-fit first before deciding.

Does this kit include all mounting hardware?

The kit includes the seven FRP panels. Verify that your vehicle's existing OEM fastener locations align with the new body kit before purchase — you may reuse factory hardware or source compatible fasteners based on your mounting preference.
