how much were the rockers?

did you just have them painted and install yourself or did you take it to a body shop and have them do it all?

rockers are on my "list" of things I want to do.... yours look good. It's almost impossible for me to tell the color is off... maybe in person you can see it more...but it m ay be one of those things that if you don't tell anyone they would n ever notice...

i have an OEM spoiler on my Acura RL daily driver. it came prepainted to match from the factory. to ME it looks like a perfect 100% paint match. someone else looked at it and told me they would tell it was off, but that guy was a body shop employee who has a fine tuned eye for colors... so bottom line - odds are no one will notice unless you tell them...

it looks great. rockers make the car look lower an dmore sporty/aggressive..

are they OEM or aftermarket generic units? poly or fiberglass or that poly/fiber blend stuff... durablend?

thanks.
