Do I need to sand and prep each piece before painting?

Yes. The kit Requires Surface Prep, which means the surface has been prepared at the factory but still needs light sanding and cleaning before applying your final paint or primer coat. Sand with fine-grit paper, clean thoroughly, and apply your chosen primer and topcoat to all four pieces.

Can I install this myself, or do I need a body shop?

This kit is designed for DIY installation with basic hand tools and jack stands. You'll need to locate factory mounting points on your bumpers and rockers, then secure each piece using appropriate fasteners for your setup. If you're not comfortable with body work, a professional install ensures proper fitment and alignment.

Will this kit interfere with my jack points or undercarriage components?

The side skirts (rockers) do sit lower than the OEM panels. Before final installation, verify clearance around your factory jack points and ensure no suspension or undercarriage lines are obstructed. You may need to adjust your jacking approach once the kit is mounted.
