hey guys, been a long time since my last visit... nice to be back
 ! I am really dumb when it comes to installing body kits, but i just want to get it right,so bear with me. I got a 96 bumper, ss3 splitters, oem rear splitters, and oem sideskirts. Would it be best to paint these first before installing them? Or should I install them first, then paint? The reason I ask is becuz I'm worried about the front bumper and the ss3 splitters because the splitters overlap the bumper thus leaving the overlapped portion of the bumper unpainted if I install the parts first. Thanks as always folks!!

yeah, you never wanna paint something before you know it fits right and when you do paint it... you don't want it stickin out by bad judgement of painting it while it's on.
