Do I need to sand this before painting?

Yes. Sand the surface with your preferred grit to prep it for paint adhesion. The FRP arrives ready for finishing — use your chosen primer and topcoat system based on your climate and desired durability.

Will this cover work with my factory bed latch?

The cover is designed to integrate with factory mounting points. Before installation, verify that your existing bed hardware and latch mechanism have clearance and proper alignment with the two-piece assembly. If you've modified or replaced the factory latch, test fit first.

What fasteners do I need to install this?

The tonneau assembly connects at factory mounting locations. Confirm your vehicle's existing fastener type and size by referencing your service manual or inspecting the mounting points directly — this ensures you use the correct hardware for a secure fit.
