Default Underside body protection rails

A week or so ago, I thought I saw someone had some kind of metal rails that go under the car to keep the bottom of the body from hitting on speed bumps, driveways, etc.
I looked in my West Coast Corvettes catalog and couldn't find any. Who has them?

Thanks

Jay

Contact Andy at A&A Performance in Oxnard.

He has a package deal on them...

The rocker rails (the items you're asking about) and frame savers... the FS go on the skid rails under the front bumper. They are poly wheels that roll your nose instead of scraping it...

Get them both... you won't regret it.. and they are very reasonable
insurance.

Just put 'em on my ride yesteday. Wish I'd done this mod right after I bought the car, would have saved me lots of grimaces and at least one bad scratch on my rockers!

Got mine this week. They go on this weekend. Andy's running a special on the rails and frame savers right now. Need to get my car aligned after lowering so I need to get these on BEFORE they roll it up on the alignment machine. It will definitely drag going on. I'm also going to bring some wood planks for then to use.

That is exactly what I wanted. I e-mailed them for a drive in drive out price for both items.
