Hi all
I am trying to order some sheet aluminium for the rear of my car. The area I will be panelling is very similar to the front wheel arch area and the company I am looking at using offer two types of aluminium 1050A H14 or 5251 H22.
I don't know what grade aluminium I used on the front of the car as it was supplied by Tornado but it's 1.5mm thick so I am planning to get the new aluminium in the same thickness so the panels match.
Could anyone tell me what grade aluminium is best to use though 1050 or 5251? I am planning on cutting the aluminium with a jig saw, fold using my sheet metal folder and then all panels will be powder coated.
Thanks
Trevor
