Hey....it's homecoming time and my daughter's car is being used in a parade. They will be putting signs on the door and wondering if the doors are metal or not! (if they are metal, we can put magnets on the signs but if not...wondering if anyone has ideas on how best to adhere signs for a couple of hours?) Thank you so much for any answer....
(daughter's car is off to college....so I can't take a magnet and check it out for myself!)

they are metal. However, word of advice, if they are using old signs there is a chance that dirt or other metal particles are stuck to the back. You might end up getting some scratches in the paint. Trust me, I know, I use to make magnetic signs for a living.

The doors are metal (magnetic).

The hood is Aluminum.

Put a GOOD coat of wax on the doors. Don't slide the magnets at all when applying.

When removing, peel slowly - don't slide.

FWIW - a few years ago I used to deliver pizza, and had to put one of those magnetic 'car toppers' on the roof. I'd take some wax paper and put it between the back side of the magnet and you paint. Less chance of any debris scratching the paint.

Bring a camera and post a pic when the parade's over!

I didn't even think to ask this question and I will be driving in a homecoming parade also.
