I replaced mine... less than $50 bucks each, available everywhere. I cheated and riveted the top and welded the bottom. Came out perfect.
Bought the rattle can paint from Amazon, primer, base coat, clear coat. $40 I think

I just drilled out all the spot welds, remove the old one, cleaned up the inner rocker with ospho' primed, painted and then applied Boeshield. Fitted the new rocker panel, riveted the top (along the body seam under the door gasket) in the drilled out holes, used 3M 5200 as body caulk, 2 rivets in the bottom and tack welded the remaining drilled out holes along bottom, painted and undercoated. I added the rubber "protectors" later after the paint cured. Bought a roll of the stuff... works great looks good.

Yeah, that was a different language: I understood all of the words and the how to do those things, just the application and what and how was different.
