In wet areas like showers, plastic is definitely the way to go over metal. This access panel for drywall is constructed from durable ABS that resists moisture and won't rust. The door detaches fully for good access, and the textured face takes paint nicely to blend in. Install it with construction adhesive and a few screws; the flange hides cuts well. Many plumbers use similar ones because they last without warping.
