I picked up the ABS, and a 2nd smaller pieces that should be big enough for a pan from the front valance to the McPherson struts.

So now I'm thinking about flanging the edge of the ABS. You show the edge cut and bent into tabs. Do you think I could heat the edge with a heat gun and hammer/bend it over a form without it cracking? Or crimp it with a hand tool? I'm thinking a 1/4-3/8" continuous edge rather than the tabs. I guess I can experiment on a scrap.
