The aluminum cannot be shaped into complex shapes, and that is a slight negative, but this can be compensated by using multiple panels. Not as smooth as 3-wheeler, but looking at production panels like the Audi A8, I think it is probably adequate.

Actually Jim, I am using Anti-Sieze compound on all metal fasteners as well. I found out about this from the body shop that did the repairs on the car.
Will report back on how well it works after another winter.
Jim.
