I know some other peeps have done this before, but didn't list a place to buy the parts from. I was looking around online for places to buy replacement wheel arches and/or rocker panels, and I found a place called Mill Supply in Cleveland, Ohio

They have the rocker panels, rear wheel arches, and whole quarter panel skins, for not all too expensive at all. Then just cut out the old metal, fit the new one in there, tack weld, grind welds smooth, spot putty and sand to make it smooth, then primer and paint. Might take a little while to do, but I imagine it would hold up pretty good, especially when compared to bondo or fiberglass.
Just thought I'd share in my findings ;)
