I think the best way to go would be to mark where and how much extra material is needed while they are in place. Then remove get some good card board and make patterns of each flat section and tape them together and check for fit. Trim edge as needed until they fit nice, mark all your rivet holes then transfer to new alloy, cut, fold, drill rivet holes, glue new seal on and fit. We have done a few of these in shop and with a little time and care not that big of a deal. You should be able to get both front panels out of one 8x4 sheet of alloy.
Go for it and good luck.
