Will these panels interfere with jack point access?

Side skirts sit forward of the rocker pinch weld area. Before final installation, verify jack point clearance on your vehicle and mark any areas that require trimming around the factory lift points. This takes five minutes and saves hassle during service work.

Do I need to paint before or after installing the panels?

Both approaches work. Paint before installation to avoid overspray on adjacent panels and trim. Alternatively, mask carefully and paint in place if you prefer to verify fitment first. The surface accepts standard automotive paint systems — sand and prep the surface before applying your chosen finish.

Will these panels sit flush with my factory rocker, or do they add overhang?

The Bomber profile adds subtle line definition along the rocker without extending significantly beyond the original body line. Check your vehicle's rocker panel condition before install — any dents or damage to the existing rocker may affect how cleanly these panels sit. Light surface prep and alignment shims help achieve a tight fit.
