I believe it is just standard 6160 aluminium. It is 3/16" thick. For the teaser shot, the part was polished on a buffing wheel. As we complete the parts we will most likely continue to polish these side plates as it takes all of the burrs off. And they just look amazing polished to a mirrored finish! :D
