Roll pan to replace running boards?

[Uber Affe]

I've never heard of such a thing, but it doesn't mean it doesn't exist.
If you're going for the look I think you're going for....then you'll more than likely
need to custom fabricate something. I have seen pics of people using some type of kit bash of a "new" beetle or maybe a fiberglass application to create the effect of no rails...
GOTO the first page of the general gallery and there is a guy w/ an amazing red bug with such a look.
Maybe that is what you want or similar?
Hope that helps get you started.
