side rocker panel gap

strykr · 10-02-2005, 04:39 PM

I have a 06 325i and was wondering about the gap between the body and the side rocker panels. My passenger side rocker panel is more flushed with the body than the driver side. I was wondering if anyone elses car is like this. The side rocker panel on the driver side has a larger gap where you can actually look into the gap. Does anyone else have this problem?

What is a side rocker panel? Pictures maybe?

I don't have a picture of it, but it is also known as a side skirt. It is a long horizontal piece that goes the whole side of the car under the doors, fenders, and rear quarter panel. I hope that helps.

Funny you mention that, mine seems to widen as you look front to back along the seam. I think it's that way on both sides.
