    Correct Rocker Detail - One More Try

    I posted this question in the Technical Info forum but got no response so, because I know somebody out there knows the answer, am trying again here. Please help me out if you can....

    --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Does anyone know for sure what the correct rocker panel finish is for a 1968 911? Is it body color paint? Black or other color? And very specifically, where does it start / stop? Any detailed information for this exterior trim area is appreciated.

    I tried to search the archives for this question but couldn't find a definitive answer. Thanks.

    Wink Rocker Panel Color

    Ed:

    According to the cars I have seen and also mine , the Rocker Panel should be in Body Color . This began from the exterior surface of the rocker curve(below the door) to where the Jack Stand Off or Jack support starts. Although I have seen that this support is sometimes painted in body color or in black (not painted!) they leave the natural color of the the Apko Seal or Anti-Chip (Corrosion Protective and Sound deadener) for originality purposes.

    I hope this helps.
