Do these panels require paint prep before installation?

Yes. Sand the surface to remove any gloss, then clean thoroughly to ensure proper adhesion. Apply your chosen primer and paint system once the panels are mounted and aligned to your satisfaction.

What fasteners do I need to install these?

Hardware is not included with the panels. Reference your vehicle's service manual or OEM rocker panel documentation for the correct bolt sizes and torque specifications for your application.

Can FRP panels handle road debris and minor impacts?

FRP is impact-resistant and designed to handle typical road conditions. Avoid sustained contact with sharp objects or extreme heat. Maintain your paint finish with regular washing to protect the underlying material.
