      That’s casted aluminum and is the actual frame of the vehicle I believe. Check out the jerryrigeverything video where he breaks the frame on one of these, I think it’s the same stuff. Super thin cheap foamy casted aluminum so cheap it looks like plastic.

      Edit: link to video

      in that plastic

      Excuse me, but that is a frame made of the finest aluminum that Tesla has to offer!

      You can still use the plastic working tools, just take care to not snap the frame.
