Aluminum Skin Possibilities

I'm just wondering if anyone here has used this corrugated Aluminum Skin, and if so, where they bought it. It looks awesome and I wonder if it is lighter weight, comes different colors, and maybe more forgiving to install. I really like the way it looks. Any help with this would be appreciated.
Thanks Gang

I never used it but try http://teardroptrailerparts.com, in comes in various colors and http://www.factoryrvsurplus.com in white which you would have to paint. Not sure of cost and shipping, or if install is easier or harder than flat sheet aluminum. I looked at all types of aluminum and finally decided to stay away from alum due to the threat of hail damage here in Colorado.

Maybe this place? Looks like lots of colors and styles but I couldn't get a sense of minimum orders or shipping costs.

Dave, not sure but it looks like maybe they just carry the regular square bent stuff. I like the looks of the rounded stuff. Too many trailers out there with that square bend siding. I'll give them a call tomorrow and see if they carry the the other stuff. Thanks guys.
