Hello 370ZJT,
Yes I went with the fiberglass version which came with a coat of primer from them. There were some minor imperfections in the surface meaning some small bumps and uneven sanding areas however the body shop smoothed them out. The fenders as they come are pretty much ok to just paint and then mount but to make an extra effort to ensure a nice end result with the painting you may want to ask your body shop to apply a thin layer of bondo and then sand to perfection before final paint work. The fenders themselves are very thin so they need to use care when handling. So far mine have held up and there was no major effort on getting them mounted. The only thing I noticed was the gap between the door and the fender is about an 1/8 wider. Not a big deal but it is larger than the stock gap but I guess that is expected with after market parts. Over all they have done well since installed.
