I just looked at that, I am 95% sure that it is not aluminum. It is delrin or some other polycarb. If you look closely, you can see patterns and drawings on it, showing that it's just delrin with the paper protective coating still on it.

Also, I just would like to clarify on something here, are your wheels inside those tan blocks? If they aren't, you might have a problem with frame perimeter and bumper legality. I'm guessing the frame is 24x32, which is right at 112" limit. If the wheels are supposed to be outside, and my guess about frame perimeter is true, you might want to read this thread, because you'd be in trouble:

This is the rule of why the wheels/axles can't stick out R04: In the STARTING CONFIGURATION, no part of the ROBOT may extend outside the vertical projection of the FRAME PERIMETER, with the exception of minor protrusions such as bolt heads, fastener ends, rivets, etc.

Great work, guys, and have fun this year!
