Not the easiest project for sure and if I had to it all over again I would use a much thinner gauge aluminium like a .025 instead of the .040 I'm using. I don't know what I was thinking.
Learning the hard way, from my mistakes.
Now that you got your cover from Andy, what happened to the one you were making in this post?

I'm thinkin' aluminum yard armadillo.

Well I'm at a standstill with my all aluminum one.i think I need to purchase a stretcher/shrinker tool to make the needed bends. Is on the back shelf for now.
I like the yard armadillo idea though.
