Do I need to paint each piece separately or can I assemble first?

Paint each panel individually before final installation. This ensures uniform coverage on all edges and seams, and prevents overspray on mounting points. Apply your chosen primer and color coat to the primed surfaces, then install once fully cured.

Will these panels fit over my existing bumper, or do I need to remove the OEM cover?

Remove the factory bumper cover to install this kit. The FRP panels are designed as direct replacements. Verify all mounting point locations on your vehicle before drilling or fastening to ensure clean alignment with the bumper structure.

How many pieces come in this kit and what does each one cover?

This is a complete 5-piece kit. It includes front and rear bumper covers plus side-mounted components. All five pieces are needed for the full M Performance look; the kit is not sold separately by section.
