Can I paint each piece separately before installation?

Yes. Painting the pieces off-car is the preferred approach for body kits — it gives you cleaner coverage and easier masking. Sand and prep each panel fully before primer and color coat, then install once cured.

Do I need gap filler or seam tape between the panels and OEM body lines?

Gap management depends on your body's condition and how the kit panels align to your specific vehicle. Inspect the fit before assembly, then use appropriate sealant or gap filler products to close any seams — this step is part of professional body kit finishing.

What fasteners or hardware do I need to secure these panels?

The kit ships as bare FRP panels. You'll need to source fasteners, brackets, or adhesive appropriate for your installation method. Review mounting points on your vehicle and plan fastener type and size based on your chosen install technique — bolt-on, rivet, or adhesive application.
