Aluminum maybe, but I can't see plastic being a good solution to this. The truck frames aren't just decorative, there is an extension that mounts to them that makes up the pilot and the pilot truck is mounted to that. In turn, the pulling force from the coupler pulls through the side frames, so I can't see plastic working well for that.
