I like them very much, they make the car look about 72 times wider especially if you have bigger wheels. Also they make the car look much lower from most angles just because you can no longer see under the car. The only problem I have is that it makes getting in and out of the car slightly different for a while but I got used to it and its all good now. And also if you have paint chips all over your rockersnow they will cover those up, AND if the new panels ever get rock chips its much easier to repaint or repair these that to repair the actual body rocker.

Hope that helps you decide. Ill find some more pics if you want when I get home.

Here's a shot of my new baby. I think they look good. Plus they go well with the euro rear valance.

Thanks....

Yeah, I know what you mean. I never really liked the ones I saw. But there is something about them on this car,,it just works. Plus the rear valance is metal, not fiberglass. I will agree, it is weird getting in and out at first. There is like this 3" ledge that's not there on my other car.....
