Will this bumper work with my OEM fog lights and sensors?

Check your vehicle's original bumper for existing fog hole cutouts and sensor locations. If your current bumper has them, reference those hole positions before you receive the new bumper. You may need to drill or route cutouts to match your existing lighting and sensor setup. Use a template marked from your OEM bumper to ensure precise alignment.

Do I need to cut holes for the lower valance area?

Compare the new bumper's bottom edge with your lower valance or undertray in person before installation. Some installations require trimming or cutouts in the valance for clearance. Mock-fit the bumper and mark any interference points, then trim as needed with a rotary tool or saw.

What surface prep should I do before painting?

Sand the surface lightly with fine-grit sandpaper, then clean thoroughly to remove all dust and debris. Apply your chosen primer and color coat per your paint system's instructions. Proper surface preparation ensures excellent paint adhesion and a smooth final finish.
