Will these panels interfere with jack point access?

Check your vehicle's OEM jack point locations before final installation. The rocker panel design is slim enough to clear most factory lift points, but verify clearance with your specific setup to ensure floor jack access remains unobstructed.

Do I need to remove these for routine maintenance?

No. The two-piece design allows you to access the lower rocker area without full panel removal. Individual pieces can be unbolted if service on the suspension or undercarriage is required.

What prep work is needed before painting?

Sand and prep the surface before applying your chosen finish. FRP responds well to standard automotive primers and paints once the surface is clean and properly abraded. Follow your paint system manufacturer's recommendations for adhesion and cure times.
