Default Question about replacing area behind back seat

I'm thinking that one thing I might do over the winter is replace the sheet metal that is behind the back seat and separates the trunk and the inside of the car. I've included a picture of the area I'm talking about. It's the area in red. What my question is...would I be okay just putting a flat piece of 18 gauge sheet metal in there or would there be any benefit to buying a bead roller and running some beads into the sheet metal? There's a bead roller on sale right now at one of the local tools shops, just not sure if I need to spend another $150 right now on tools if I don't need it. I know it would look better with the beads, but once the seats are in and the stereos in the trunk, you won't see that area anyways. I want to replace it to get rid of the hack job I did years ago when I mounted a couple 12" free air subs. Thanks in advance.
