FPE panels are anodized, not painted.  Their black anodize is a bit on the
flat side.  I much prefer the MOTM/Stooge paint and silk screen, but it is
not always available.

Mine are punched aluminum, .125" thick. Paint is textured black. 
(First run 1U modules were .09" thick; this has been remedied.)
FPE paint is horrible, and way too expensive for the quality, especially
when they charge per tick mark. If Doug can figure a way to do custom panels
for people, with Stooge quality... that would be superb. 
Stooges looked exactly like MOTM to me. Mine are a little different. The
textured paint is subtly different, the paint is whiter, and I'm still
debating whether to match the graphics exactly.
