Only the extendable pole is alu.

Yeah, I know, but you can easily rub the extended aluminum pole on your roof, or on a fender!

What you rub your extended pole on is your business.

Getting a SS Kit and probably the 6-speed shift **** in Aluminium. Already had the garage door mod, the 911 Design key and other minor internal mods as a pre-Xmas gift.

Where did you get you Carrera stripe from? Looks good, maybe that would be a good gift.
