Thanks for the link. I think Jaguar may have some patents around the aluminum construction but like most companies they let others actually do the manufacturing.

I was researching their alloy which is the AC600 and the manufacturer of that aluminum is Novelis. Now who stamps for them, I am surprised to learn. I thought that they did their own stamping.
