here are 2 pics after a car wash, I’ll have the rocker pics soon I plan on daily driving/track this car for about 2-3 years until I have enough cash saved for something nice but I still would like to keep the project going when I get a new car. I mean I don’t really mind side skirts but then I would need a front lip at least or else it looks gay… I like how it looks stock, most people can’t tell the rockers are rotten unless you stick your head under it.

If I were you I would just poke at it. Grab a dremel and sand away until you find good metal, then just spray some Tremclad rust paint. Throw some bings side skirts on and your good to go. I have sideskirts and no front lip. I like that look better. But my car is lowered with shitty fitting rims lol ---

Yah. It holds the moisture in. If you want your rockers replaced, a body shop can do it. But its expensive. ---

hmm okay thanks for the input a bit off topic but what about fiber glassing over the brake light hole in my hatch. I got the car with masking tape sprayed on it so I peeled it off I 'm going to shave it. ---
