You can get plastic (styrene) diamond plate sheet and paint it to look like aluminum. Plastruct makes a variety of different scales, there are two or three sheets per pack.
Here is the link, scroll down the to page 62.....http://www.plastruct.com/picat/PLAIN_PATTRND_SHTS_9.pdf
Many Hobby and craft stores carry Plastruct products

RPP carries the Hot Racing diamond plate, it's a thin aluminum that has the detail embossed into it.

Not sure anyone does ........bob, it is usually closer to 0.020" for a scale thickness close to 1/4" (1:1) You are going to have to break out the Tenax, etc and sandwich a couple sheets together.
