Try factory V6 rocker panels. They are black and will fit. You might even find someone with a V6 willing to trade with you.
In my opinion, the black looks better and will not show stone chips like the painted panels will.
 
I want to paint mine but with the car lowered 1.5" it scrapes bad,plis I have a tendency to hit curbs alot with the front. If you keep it flat black and it gets scratched, CDC recommends using bumper paint to fix it. I just spray it and it blends right in. How was the fit on yours? I had to grind mine down a bit to fit.

I have my car lowered with the Eibach Pro-kit...do you think I'll have problems scratching all of the time? Mine will be painted black along with the car. I'd hate to scuff up that PPG paint.
 
On the inside where you put the 1/4 tape accross I had to grind that down a little on both sides my intercooler also gets in the way a little it pushs up on the back side a little other than that it fits nice and snug.

Can you tell me exactly what brand of paint you use? Mine is scratched up pretty bad and I'm using a sharpie but it looks like crap.

Here is your car geo with the black rockers. Just so you can get an idea of what it may look like.

I like it. Thanks now all I need is a donar car. Someone said the V6's have these. I'm going to call my local junk yard and see if they have any. I guess the big question is will it match the chin and the shaker. But I like the concept alot. It blends right into my theme.

I dont know if you can tell by my avatar but Im using Eibach Pro Springs also. You can see how low the spoiler is. Unless you are a very very careful driver, its gonna scratched on the bottom and edge of the spoiler lip when coming out of an incline grade or going in. I recommened driving the car for a few months to get the hang of it and see what kind of abuse it takes. I decided to stick with just using bumper paint to touch up bangs and dings because having it repainted with clear coat is pain gets pricey. Ill try to take some closeups of the lip of the spoiler so you can see how banged up it can get. Ill trying posting them Thursday or Friday.

Oh, sorry about my incorrect sentences or spelling. Worked 14 hours today and my mind is not clear. I wanted to add though this spolier is very tough, when I used to run into parking curbs it would just flex and pop back into original shape. Now I stop a few feet from where I park and get out to make sure Im not going to hit anything. Maybe for those looking to painting it to match the body should do this but still need to worry about steep inclines and declines if the car is lowered. I do not know how it does on the stock suspension, but with the 4x4 lift it comes with it, shouldnt be a problem.
 
My car is not lowerd at all but I do have a steep driveway and I scratch it jut about every time. I need to figure out how to prop up the nose of the chin about 1/2" or something. Someone suggested that I get some bumper paint and apply a couple of light coats to cover the scratchs.
