Changing side rocker panels?

Anyone done this? My old 2002 Carrera had flared rocker panels which I liked. The factory rocker panels in my Turbo are ok, but kind of blah - doesn't really add anything to the side profile. Anyone get a different set of side rocker panels (Pics would be nice!). Is it worth it to just repaint the factory ones from black to sliver to color match the rest of the car.

Would love to have a side profile something like this (for sideskirts and front lip ... actually curious where I can get a wing like that also):

I think the only rocker panels for the wide body cars are Techart

The rockers in the photo appear to be original items that have been colour coded.

Techart make a great set of rockers for the car that replace the original rockers.
