Please remeber the people on this forum are fanatics, you pull up a brushed aluminium cobra, the participants on this forum would kill for it, but the other 99.5% of the population will think a painted cobra be it fiberglass or aluminium is much much nicer.

No challenge at all to keep it from oxidizing, but then my car is only a couple years old, garaged and covered. I've literally almost done nothing and it still looks great. I don't have the brushed finish though, I have the polished finish.
99.99% of the population has never seen a fully polished aluminum Cobra and the crowds at the few small shows (and weekend coffee runs) that I've attended reflect that.
I don't know what the percentage is when it comes to the population preferring a "bare naked lady" (BNL) versus a painted car, but I'd sure like to take that bet at 99.5% preferring paint.
