Question about stock strut bar ?
Does anyone know if the stock strut bar is made of aluminum ? I am in the process of polishing all of the aluminum piping on my greddy tt kit and would like to polish the strut bar if possible.

When you cut it in half did you notice if it was steel or aluminum ?

Wouldn't using a magnet be an easier way to tell?
