Looks OK but not my cup of tea, just too busy looking. When I was in school we used steel and leaded in all gaps so it was a smooth transition. Everything now is fiberglass and rivets. Calif. was hot in the 50's for custom cars, tops chopped, bodies sectioned and frames Z'd. We had great High School Auto and Machine Shops to work out of.

I'm not sure they'd look that great - the rear of the 968 skirt is supposed to line up with the 968 rear bumper.
The main problem with mounting them is that on a 968 the rocker is indented and has holes for the mounting hardware. On a 951, you'd have to get a fiberglass copy and figure out your own way to mount it (adhesive, probably).

Did you ever get your parts from D9? I remember you had a couple of threads where you were waiting for them to respond / send you parts.

I was looking at D9's website and didnt find anything on rocker panels. Just the nice looking one he has.
I found this on broadfoot ...
At first I didnt like the style since the ones I've seen the nose piece is too wiI find it neatly aggressive. 993 GT2 style...

Forgot to mention, I have D9 front splitter. Bought it when he was starting. Very nice piece and reasonable delivery considering the other side of the globe. Will post pics as soon as I finish the car. But kinda oversize look with everything else stock.

Unfortunately No, still waiting but it should be soon. I am on my phone now, but quite sure they sell 968 style rockers for the 951. It was in the aero section for the 951. Price was reasonable as you said considering the long distance shipping. Just glad I didn't need everything quickly.
