Is there any concern if we choose the metal bondek raw finish?
Does that look cheap work? Should negotiate with builder for any better option?
Any pros/cons?
Whats better option?

Bondek is just formwork that doesnt need removing but I dont think the creators ever intended that it be left exposed, but maybe they did.

You mean with same roof as house? Sorry, by sheeting it I mean gyprock, paint, lights etc. Finish it like the rest of your house.
