Do I need to paint each piece separately, or can I assemble and paint as a unit?

You can paint individual pieces before installation, which gives you better control and finish quality. Alternatively, assemble first and paint the complete kit on the vehicle — just mask mounting surfaces and seams carefully to keep paint out of fitment areas.

Will I need gap filler or seam tape between the pieces?

Gaps depend on fitment tolerances at each joint. Have gap filler and flexible seam tape on hand during assembly. Sand and prep the surface where pieces meet, then apply your choice of filler to create clean panel-to-panel transitions before final paint.

How many pieces are actually in the kit, and what does each one cover?

This is a 10-piece configuration that spans the front fascia, side extensions, rocker panels, rear quarter sections, and lower rear panels. Your installation guide will break down each piece's position — reference it during layout to confirm coverage before final fitment.
