Bellypan materials

Time to talk about bellypan materials. Obviously coroplast is number one and will make up most of the pan. But, we must deal with exhaust in certain areas. Aluminum seems to be a good alternative. Its very light weight, durable, and resists corrosion very well. However, its not the cheapest... I know some guy still use it though. Where do you get your aluminum from? What else can we use around the exhaust piping and components?

Edit: Just did some searching around and it seems aluminum flashing is actually pretty cheap. Yay.
