i am just about done with building the body (just gotta do the tummy and forearm cuts). i will be using a 2 post strat style trem. since i am going to have to bang them in, i was wondering if i should install them now prior to the finishing stage just in case i slip up while banging them in.

your recommendations?

Nope! Unless you want your posts the same colour as your finish with a heavy coat of lacquer. When finished with the finish. Just line up the posts one at a time and put a block on top. Then use a hammer or anything you can get your hands on and hit that wooden block hard without worrying about scratching the finish.
