Will this mount to the factory bed rails or do I need to drill?

This tonneau mounts at factory points — no drilling required. Hand tools and a helper make installation quick, usually under an hour.

Does this cover need paint or primer before I install it?

The cover ships ready to bolt on as-is. If you want to match your truck's paint, prep and paint after mounting or before — your call. The base finish protects the panel during storage.

What if the cover doesn't seal tight or rolls unevenly after install?

Test-fit first before final tightening. Bed rails can have minor variations — loosen the hardware slightly, adjust the cover until it rolls smooth and seals evenly, then lock down. Most fitment tweaks take five minutes.
