I'm "not-sure" exactly what you are speaking of but maybe this will help. On my car there are fiberglass rocker covers with the air vents built in (not boxed rockers). They mount semi-flush to the stock metal ones. I had a body shop epoxy some metal tabs onto the back of each rocker cover that then bolt onto the stock rockers. Drilling holes is required. I had no idea how to do this right, that's why I contacted a body man. They know all the tricks. This method allows you to pull the glass part into correct contour, other methods might not hold up for the long haul. This was done 2 1/2 years ago and all is still as it was when first installed. I thought about glassing the tabs on for added strength but this method seems to work as well.
Edit - after re reading the post I see what you're after. You use rivets. Prep the area, line up the pannel, rivet it on, glass it in, grind off the rivet heads, smooth it out and primer. Obviously there is more to it than this outline, you get the idea.
