Curious... noobie question probably but still question

I'm about to start skinning the sides of my 4x6' trailer with aluminum.. What do you guys suggest on how to attach the aluminum walls to the square tubing? rivets? Self tapping screws? I don't have access to a welder.

Thanks!

3m VHB tape is super easy to work with, will hold great (commercial truck boxes are now being build with it), quicker then sealants, and it will give you a smooth hole free surface.

X2 on VHB. They put fire truck skins on with this stuff!
