Hello all,
I've got a 2002 GTP and the rockers are in pretty poor shape, as this is apparently an issue for these cars.
My question is first, how much structural support do they give? I know back in the days with body on frame, they were mostly cosmetic, however, seeing as this is a unibody, I would imagine they do offer some support.
I also was curious in the difference between the inner rockers and the outer rockers? I see that you can buy the outer rocker replacements, but they just look like thin stamped steel, which takes me back to wondering how much support they give.
The car has 160k on it, I picked it up fairly inexpensively and was just wanting to use it as a daily driver to keep miles off of other stuff.
The GTP, like the GT, has the plastic ground effects panels so that is hiding most of what I can see, from the bottom they are rusty, with a couple holes, so I don't really know the extent of it, but my experience with rust has been, it's always way worse than what you can see, so I'm not holding out much hope for them.
I guess I'm just wanting some knowledge and advice regarding this.
Thanks all
