Would it possible to find a machine shop that can copy the stock chassis, but in aluminum? Basically, how a key duplicator works sorta...

Good point. There are probably a few machine shops in Tucson, Arizona area that would probably have the equipment to do that, however it would probably cost almost as much, and it would need to be slightly thicker as well, since the stock plastic chassis is not all that thick. And there would be alot of aluminum waste involved. It would be worth a shot at getting a quote, I will see what I can come up with for that, but I doubt it would be worth it.

I think I will do a little searching around and find someone who has one of those East End Machining chassis' and find out how they like it.
