It's metal , I've always assumed a form of Anodised Aluminium as they don't rust but do corrode like aluminium . |

I thikn they look vest, when you paint strip them and polish them up, they are not really reflective but very bright. So I'd assume, as said above anodised aluminium. Very 70s I reckon, 60s was chrome grille, but 70s was alluminium alloy grille time! |

I bought a second hand one and gave it a couple of really good polishes, they do come up really well. Steve |
