So are they steel or fiberglass? These posts don't really clear it up for me...

These are fiberglass just like the original factory ones. The gt we have here has factory fiberglass, the 916 we have here has factory fiberglass, and the so called "last six" has factory fiberglass. Steel were never made in the flared variety. (although we do make an excellent steel repro standard rocker panel!!)

I am getting very close to welding on my flairs from the earlier group buy. I want the rockers in hand prior to starting the flairs. If you had these available today and fitment was good, I would buy them.

I had been planning on buying the Getty part as they seem to be the current best bet regarding fitment. So hurry up and start making them! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)
