Thanks for the explanation I was wondering how it happened

i remember going to a subaru dealership and they had a stupid low STI that needed to go on a lift. 2 guys litterally pulled up the car at the fender and quarter panel arch to raise it a little bit so that the 3rd guy could get the lift under the lift point. i was like im never brining my car here.

hahahaha

This may be a stupid question but can someone show a picture outlining what the rocker panel looks like? I am guessing it's just the bottom trim along the sides of the car.
