Lowe's should have angled aluminum. There is a small rack with vertically-arranged steel/aluminum bars and angled pieces from 2' up to 8' long. To provide maximum strength, I'd recommend 1/8" thick stock. I got an 8' long (only length with the other dimensions I wanted) X 1/8" thick X 1.5/1.5" wide angled bar. I just cut one edge to 1" and left the other at 1.5". Works well and covers the majority of the battery. If you want, I'll cut you a couple of pieces to the rough length you want and send them to you - you'll have to work on it to get the exact length/width you need. I know I'll never use all of the left over 6.5 feet I have!
