Install Kit then Paint or Vice Versa?
I just got WW Rear Bumper Lip, and have the side skirts (painted White) on the way. Should I install them now and drill holes before the final coat of paint goes on, or should I paint them first and then install them. I got a quote from a shop to paint all 3 for $350.00, all work guarantee.

I would get all painted before the install, that way all surfaces are covered easily. As long as the paint is cured, no harm would be done by drilling, the holes are only about 1/8" diameter anyway. The Oem kit comes painted...(therefore installing after paint)....if that helps your decision.
