Will this work with my factory smart entry system?

Yes. This handle is designed to integrate with OEM smart entry and won't require any reprogramming or module updates. Your existing key fob will work as-is.

Do I need any special tools or fasteners to install this?

Mounting method and fastener specs aren't detailed here — test-fit the assembly first to confirm what you'll need. OEM door handles typically use clips or screws at factory mounting points, so have basic hand tools and fasteners on standby.

Is this a painted or bare assembly?

Finish color matches the original OEM handle — no additional painting needed. Inspect it before install to make sure the finish matches your door and surrounding trim.
