Do I need to modify my bumper cutouts for fog lights or sensors?

The kit ships as a complete assembly. Before installation, reference your vehicle's OEM bumper opening locations and verify whether the Type JS styling aligns with your existing fog light or sensor placement. Any trimming or modification should be done to match your specific setup.

Can I install this over my factory bumper, or do I need to remove it?

Full removal of the OEM bumper is recommended for proper fitment and to ensure all mounting points align correctly. This also allows you to inspect the underlying brackets and clips before installing the new assembly.

What prep is needed before painting?

Sand the surface with appropriate sandpaper and clean thoroughly to remove all dust. Apply your chosen primer and paint system per the paint manufacturer's instructions for best results and durability.
