This is cool because of the weight savings, but....don't ever get a dent in it. You can't fix a dent cheaply like you can w/ steel bodies.

The reason is aluminum stretches and even dry ice techniques won't work on it.

I know the dent workers I know hate everything that currently has aluminum panels....like our GT500 hoods. :shades:
