I was actually thinking that tent poles might work pretty well for something like this.

In the long run, I will be doing a rigid cover, to better protect my tools and work equipment I have to carry around at times.

Seems like an "aero-tonneau" is simple enough that I am suprised there aren't any commercially available yet!
