Does anyone know a place to purchase replacement rocker panels for both sides? Unfortunately, the local Ford dealer broke the rear tabs on both of my rockers.

Not easy to come by. I looked awhile back and only could find the front trim pieces.

I don't think anyone is making an aftermarket one, but I will stay tuned to this thread to see if someone chimes in of knowledge of any.

Never heard of anyone reproducing those. But if ford broke them, then I'd say it's their issue to find/paint/install replacements.

I've thought about finding a spare set for when the time comes to paint my car. Guess I'll just look into fixing the tabs on my current set. I think Carbon Driven makes a set too.

I've seen those fiberglass specialties before in a youtube video. IIRC they don't use all the factory attachment points. They completely leave out the push pins at the fenders leaving the pieces at the ends attached by the screws.

I'm generally not a fan of fiberglass for body parts like that anyway. They don't really flex all that well. But you gotta do what you gotta do sometimes.

I totally understand. Sometimes you flat out don't have a choice if you want certain parts. I too have a hard time with fiberglass parts like bumpers and side skirts. Hoods don't bother me though as long as they are high quality.

Looking at their site the parts they produce are supposedly flexible and don't seem prone to cracking.

I like their shaved bullitt side skirts. Maybe I'll give them a shot as I am painting my car. They also claim to test fit their parts on shop vehicles so that is a plus.

I'm not familiar with TruCarbon products. Are they any good?
