Okay, I'd like to send some feedback to my fellow gearheads. It's just over an inch thick aluminum alloy and won't warp or crack like the reviews you've read about other panels. It worked perfectly for my Outlaw 38×38 Webber because you need room to move the gas wheels. It was the perfect distance. I cut a tiny strip with a peanut grinder to fit and you need to press this one for your carbs.
