GT-Takeoff Rocker Panels
post up ur pics of you v6 with JUST the gt takeoff rocker panels on , not the gt bumpers..just the rockers..i wanna see how it will look.i have a white car. so post them up. also for 99 bucks it sounds worth it. 99 bucks for 2 painted rocker panels? are theyhard to install? also my main concern other then are they hard to install, is, will it throw the lines of the car off not having the gt bumpers on? btw for 99 bucks thats for both rockers?

RE: GT-Takeoff Rocker Panels
Look at my picture below-- GT rockers, no GT front or rear. Yes, it throws the lines off a little, but not bad to me.
It's extremely easy to install. There are how-to's on the forum if you search for them. The one I found had pics, step by step. It'll take you 20 minutes or less to do this.

RE: GT-Takeoff Rocker Panels
I ordered mine, should be here Thursday. Looking at Icon's, it'snot that bad, especially if you follow the flow of the arc from the lower fascias to the rocker. I looked at a lot pics of classic mustangs. They are very similar.
LOL Some GT rockers! Those are definetly in the future...

RE: GT-Takeoff Rocker Panels
the rockers are soo easy to install!
I did not even pull the clips out on the bottom.
just take out the 2 pins in the front fender (lift the middle of them with a flathead screwdriver)
Then you can use the rocker itself to pull down the christmas tree clips as low as they'll go. mine didn't come out and I didnt have any good tools to remove them, so I just slipped my stock rockers out of them and slipped the new ones on. then I pushed the clips back in and put the 2 pins back from inside the fender.
there is a writeup on how to do this that is easy to follow.
good luck.
