I would think you could stamp the scallops into it. I don't know why you'd use corrugated metal instead of sheet metal.
Because when I replace the sunshade on my abode with a solar collector I will have a lot of corrugated metal. And it sounds easier to scallop corrugated than corrugate scallops flat sheets.

And I'd hammer-form the edge of the scallop to stiffen it. I'm thinking about columns in my throne room, not a spoiler.
