Added note on the perforated aluminum wheel covers -
They weren't perfectly flat, and in some places would "float" away from the rim. I fixed that with double stick foam "tape". That stuff is very durable, is also used to stick molding and other doodads on the outside of vehicles. I'm still able to pull the wheel covers away to check and top off tire pressure - it just requires some new foam afterwards.
Of course if you try this build, it's best to laminate the coroplast + aluminum as flat as you possibly can. But foam tape isn't bad stuff to work with.
