Will this fit my vehicle with the factory fog light cutouts intact?

This bumper ships as a full cover panel. Before installation, compare the fog light hole locations on your OEM bumper to the mounting surface of this cover. You may need to carefully transfer or cut fog light openings to match your vehicle's wiring and light assembly configuration.

Do I need to drill new holes for the lower valance or sensors?

Check your vehicle's original bumper for any sensor cutouts or lower valance mounting points. This panel is a replacement cover, so align it with existing factory holes on your mounting structure. If your OEM bumper has sensor packaging, verify clearance and hole placement before final installation.

Should I paint this before or after installation?

Either approach works. Many builders prefer to sand, prime, and paint off the vehicle for better coverage and finish quality, then install once dry. Others install first, then mask and paint in place. Sand the surface thoroughly before applying your topcoat regardless of timing.
