Repairing some body panels would require perhaps some 26 gage (.018) or 24 gage (.023) … easy to bend and form by hand. The front fender off my zuk measures about .035 or 20 gage. A gas tank or a flat panel that needs some strength makes 16 gage (.059) or 14 gage (.075) a better choice although some equipment might be needed to bend these heavier gages. I checked the deformed stock front bumper off my zuk and it measured about .065. ......
