I've seen reference to billet door handles too. Does it just mean aluminum / aftermarket?

GM used fake "billeted" grilles on the Yukon Denali but the CTS-V has real billeted grilles.

I believe billet stuff usually means it is cut from one single billet/one single piece. But it's just an aluminum steering wheel is all.
