Aftermarket rocker panels

I just painted the rockers to match the car. I am trying to decide how I like them. They were solid black but I thought is was to much black.
The pic is a little shadowy but the bottom 2 inches or so is black to match the front spoiler valance I put on.
What do you guys think?

They are gemballa. I bought them used on fleabay, but I got them for a good price. They are pretty well made from urethane instead of fiberglass and they are lightweight.

I have not weighed either set but I would guess to be about half or so of the stock since there is no metal or rubber.

Looks like a good alternative to the rockerless look.
