Sorry if it goes over why coroplast is better than aluminum but what is that reason? Im going to read your post now.

I can only see a couple reasons one being that coroplast is lighter but a downside is coroplast can't touch the exhaust where aluminum can. Also strength of the pan will be better if you scrape going over a bump or curb if you have a metal pan. I would imagine coroplast would just rip or fall off.
