Do I need to remove the original fenders to install these?

Over fenders bolt over your existing panels — no removal necessary. This means faster installation and your factory fenders stay intact as a safety net. Verify your vehicle's OEM bolt hole locations and spacing before drilling any new mounting points.

What prep work is needed before paint?

Sand the surface with appropriate abrasive media to achieve a smooth base, then clean away all dust. This ensures proper adhesion for your chosen topcoat, whether single-stage paint or clear over base.

Will these fenders affect my tire clearance?

Over fenders add width to the wheel arch. Before installation, confirm your tire diameter and offset specifications clear the new body line — especially if you're running aggressive fitment. Test fit or reference your setup's known clearance specs to avoid contact during suspension travel.
