For you AU experts

What materials are the AU1 Bi plane spoiler, B Pillar trims and top and bottom exterior door trims made from?

Thanks JC, its a very interesting piece of material, especially when it's been machined as it goes from a rough textured flat grey to very reflective high gloss black with a clearcoated look and super smooth.

I'm working on getting the B Pillars reflective at the moment, taking some time but I'm slowly seeing some results
