I wouldn't worry too much about matching the bumper profile to the rocker panels. Bumpers seldom have the same profile, examples are:

Audi S4 B5 (skirts have less slope than bumpers).
Audi RS2 B4.
Audi S2 Avant.
Other models, I can't recall

I don't propose to make the rockers stick out, just have less of a slope than the stockers, and be a bit deeper at the same time.
