From what I gather, the rear tub is not that difficult in Ali, nore shoudl the side pannels be. The big one will be making a bonnet that fits nicely with ther scuttle, sides and nose.
Not sure weight for weight. Glass is probably heavier, but will nead no further paint coat. Ali would either have to be left plain to go mat or covered. Also You need to be careful with Ali not to leave any workin marks if it's the final surface.
The saturn scuttle can be used with a screen if you want, but your on your own creating a frame as with any other scuttle design. (perhaps a design for a screen frame on the Saturn Scuttle could be made available by someone)
I think outsourcing all the ALI work on a one off bespoke basis would be far more costly than the glas pack.
So...
If you do it yourself it's probably cheaper in ALI. But it needs careful handling.
if your paying somone then the Glass is probably cheaper.
