Can I paint each piece separately, or should I assemble first?

Painting pieces individually before installation is the standard approach and gives you better coverage and finish. Mask and prep each panel separately, apply your primer and color, then install once fully cured. This method also makes handling easier during the paint process.

Do I need gap filler or seam tape between the panels and body?

Gap management depends on your fitment and panel alignment. Have the kit test-fitted before final assembly to identify any gaps. Standard automotive gap filler or caulk designed for painted surfaces can address minor gaps once everything is primed and ready for paint.

How many pieces are in this kit, and what does each one cover?

This is a four-piece kit. Typically that includes front and rear bumper covers plus side skirts. Confirm the exact panel breakdown matches your intended design before purchasing — each kit may distribute coverage differently depending on the Showoff 3 specification.
