Do I need hardware to mount this, or does it come with bolts?

This valance uses your vehicle's existing factory mounting points. Bring fasteners that match your OEM hardware spec — the panel itself ships without bolts. A quick check of your service manual will confirm the bolt size and torque spec for your CR-V.

What condition does this arrive in — does it need to be painted?

The valance comes as a bare hard panel ready for paint, primer, or finish of your choice. If you prefer it primed or in a specific color, reach out before checkout — custom finishing options may be available.

Is installation something I can handle at home with basic tools?

Absolutely. This bolts to factory points using hand tools only — no welding, drilling, or specialty equipment required. Plan on 30–45 minutes if you've done simple bolt-on work before. Refer to your service manual for torque specs to avoid overtightening.
