Do I need to prep or paint this before installation?

Depends on your finish preference. It ships ready to mount as-is, but if you want color match to your bed or molding, primer and paint before install keeps the edges cleaner than painting after.

Will this mount to my factory tailgate without drilling?

Yes—it uses the existing molding attachment points. No new holes needed, and no permanent modification to your tailgate.

What if the fit is off or I need to return it?

Test-fit it on the vehicle before you commit adhesive or fasteners. If the profile doesn't align with your molding geometry, contact ModSupply within 30 days of purchase with photos—returns handled at warehouse speed.
