ND1 MX5 Boot Lid, Aluminium?

[42 Carat Plonker]

Hi folks,

I viewed an ND1 MX5 yesterday and spotted some bubbling paintwork on the underside of the boot lid. I've googled this and it doesn't appear to be a common issue. Some of my searching appeared to suggest that the boot lid may be aluminum - is this correct?

Edit - found the answer. The boot lid is aluminium, along with the bonnet. Seems the bubbling is probably moisture trapped under the paint.
