rocker panel repair???
Is it possible to get these repaired even though they are made from fiber glass? My passenger side rocker is scuffed pretty bad on the lower portion where the vent on a zo6 would go and on the bottom its cracked. So basically the question is can fiber glass be repaired at an experienced body shop? Have any of you had to get yours repaired?

Mine are being repaired now. It doesn't sound like my damage was as bad as yours, but I have the car in for some other stuff anyway, so I had them tackle the rockers, too.
I saw the car a few days ago after they filled the scratches, and again yesterday after paint but before buffing. It looks like they did a great job.

Yes, they can be repaired. A good body shop should be able to set you up.
