An inlet assembly (240) of a nacelle (110, 200) includes an inlet cowl (206). The inlet cowl (206) includes a lipskin (236) that has a front section (258) which defines the leading edge (210) of the inlet cowl (206). The front section (258) includes a composite panel (270) and a metallic coating (272) disposed along an exterior surface (276) of the composite panel (270) to protect the composite panel (270) from damage. The lipskin (236) defines perforations (280) that penetrate through the composite panel (270) and the metallic coating (272) at the front section (258) to convey a liquid through a thickness of the lipskin (236) onto an exterior surface (248) of the inlet cowl (206).
