    Rocker panel/sideskirt options?

    My car has some pretty rusty rocker panels. I know you can buy new rocker panels online, but I feel like having the bodywork done might be a little expensive right now.

    Where exactly do some of the sideskirts connect on E30s? I'm thinking of cutting off the rusty portions and getting some sideskirts to cover them up. I just have never seen E30 sideskirts of any kind in person and haven't had a lot of luck searching for pictures of where they mount.

    Thanks!
    Thanks,

    You can get new rockers from fix my rust for like 30 bucks. They really aren't that hard to replace. Drill some spot welds cut the old out and weld the new in.

      Thanks, didn't know it was that easy. I have 0 fab experience though, never touched a welder in my life. Guess I'll see if I have any friends that owe me favors.
