Talked to a body shop today about replacing the rocker panels on my 03 Silverado and was informed it is a big job and would cost 5-7,000 dollars ! I looked online and I see why. The doors and box have to come off and there is an outer, intermediate and inner panel. I guess I will let it rust until I can buy a different truck.
I would get more than one quote if I were you. Up here in Vermont it's $1,500-$2000 to have them cut out, new ones welded in, and repainted. That's what I was quoted on my 2007 Sierra last fall from two different body shops.
