Please, get it painted first. Unpainted kits look retarded. I think the black widow kit has full front bumper and rear bumper, so it should be pretty easy to install yourself if you have confidence and aren't stupid. Just get instructions on how to take off your front and rear bumper and side sills

If u can use a screw driver and drill u'll be fine, not hard to take off the OEM. I'd suggest getting it painted first then putting it on. That way the shop won't miss any edges or hard to reach spots. I actually had mine done in CT when i went to Uconn. Some body shop up there real inexpensive too only $300 paint and installed. They did a pretty good job considering they never put a kit on before! Good luck!

yeah, you've got to be sure it fits the way you want it to before you paint it.
