Do these mount to factory attachment points or do I need to drill?

Factory mounting points align with OEM holes — no drilling required. The pocket-riveted design uses existing attachment locations on your dually frame.

What prep is needed before installation?

Clean the mounting surface and inspect for corrosion. If the truck bed shows surface rust at attachment points, wire-brush and treat before mounting. This ensures the rivets seat correctly and prevents future corrosion at the joint.

Can I paint these or do they need primer?

Hard panel flares accept paint and primer. Scuff the surface lightly, apply primer, then finish coat in your color. If you're matching factory paint, bring your truck's color code to the painter — panel finish will need a clear coat for durability.
