Same as the originals, a slightly better grade in terms of corrosion resistance from what I understand (but largely the same).
There would be a lot more to consider if we changed the thickness - mounting points, impact resistance (we'd rather the arm folded in an impact, saving the chassis / subframe) so the decision was made not to change this.

The project was managed by us but placed in the hands of an OE supplier to complete, and they were keen to stick to the original thickness too.
