Will this cover my OEM bumper beam, or do I need to remove it?

This bumper cover mounts over your existing bumper assembly. Your factory beam stays in place — the cover wraps the front face. Check your bumper beam condition before installation; significant damage underneath may require repair before the cover goes on.

Are there fog light cutouts, or will I need to drill them?

Reference your vehicle's OEM bumper hole locations before installation. If your corolla has factory fog openings, verify their position against this cover's design. Some modification may be required depending on your specific setup.

What surface prep is needed before I paint?

Sand and prep the surface before applying your chosen finish. The FRP arrives prepared to accept paint — follow standard automotive paint procedures for adhesion and durability.
