Ok so for the exhaust tube on a hydro I'm sure that everyone is making them. I know it's just for looks but do you get a aluminum sheet and roll it. If so how do you hold it in place weld it, glue it or screw it? Or do you get a aluminum tube and stick it in the back.

All I use is aluminum roof flashing.
Roll it to the shape you want, tape it, then pop-rivet it together. (with the seam on the bottom).
