Materials for Ecomodding

Hi All!

I was wondering about getting a list of suggested cheap and practical sources for materials used for aero and other types of modifications on vehicles.

Any suggestions on what materials to use for certain things and HOW to use them would be great

I was also wondering if anyone has ever used window shrink plastic insulation as a material for eco-modifications. Seems like it could work great, VERY lightweight, and not too expensive. Also, being clear, would help keep a stock look to a car.

Maybe comments about materials here could be put together into a Wiki?
