Will this interfere with the bumper beam or trunk latch area?

This lip mounts to the lower fascia only and does not affect the bumper beam or trunk mechanisms. The GT Spec profile extends below the stock bumper line without contacting structural components. Verify clearance at full compression and during parking situations on your specific vehicle setup.

Can I use adhesive instead of drilling new mounting holes?

This lip is designed for bolt-on installation using the factory bumper hole locations. FRP adheres best when fasteners provide mechanical support; adhesive alone will not maintain rigidity at speed. Use the OEM mounting points for stability and longevity.

What prep work should I do before painting?

Sand the surface with appropriate sandpaper and wipe clean before applying your chosen finish. The FRP arrives ready for paint — no additional priming or sealing is required unless you're using a specialty coating system. Follow your paint manufacturer's surface prep recommendations.
