What prep work is needed before painting?

Sand the surface lightly with 400-grit or finer to promote paint adhesion, then clean thoroughly to remove dust. Your paint supplier can recommend primer and topcoat compatible with FRP. Proper surface prep ensures long-term finish durability.

Will this assembly require drilling or modification to my existing bumper?

Verify your vehicle's existing grille and headlight trim mounting locations before installation. Reference your vehicle's service manual or factory documentation to confirm bolt hole locations and specifications. The assembly is designed for standard OEM mounting points.

What hardware is needed to secure the grille to the bumper?

This assembly ships as the trim piece only. Source fasteners based on your OEM mounting specifications — your vehicle's service manual will list the correct bolt sizes and torque values. Confirm hole spacing and bolt diameter with your existing bumper setup before purchasing separate hardware.
