Do I need to drill my bumper to install this?

No — this bracket mounts at factory attachment points on the frame, so drilling is not necessary. Just align and secure to the existing studs.

What fasteners should I use?

Mounting hardware is not included with the bracket. Use stainless steel bolts and washers rated for exterior use to prevent rust and corrosion where the bracket meets the frame.

Will the black finish scratch or chip easily?

Powder coat is tough, but any finish can show wear from road debris and weather. Touch-up black paint is inexpensive and covers minor scuffs quickly.
