Default Rocker Panel Source ?

So I was looking for bumpers on Amazon, as I am in need of a rear bumper, and saw some rock sliders, but these diamond plate rocker panels caught my eye.
I did some searches, but must not be wording it right.
Does anyone know where I can get some pre formed panels like those in the Pic ?
They don't have to be diamond plate necessarily.
I have a couple rotted out places from rust, I was thinking something like those would cover them up, then I could put some Bondo or the like on the inside.
Any help will be appreciated. Thanks.

If I remember correctly warrior products makes those. I would beware though. I believe they may be attached by rivets. Plus if you cover that stuff up you may just end up trapping water in there and make it worse without realizing it.

I think the previous owner put some roll on bedliner down there, that probably held some moisture in there and made it worse.

If they are rusted out why not replace them with rock sliders http://spadanoenterprises.com/-xj--cherokee.html
