Liability/traceability is probably the highest reason something cost 2-20x more for the aviation version.
Depending on the part, limited production vs automotive drives up the per unit cost.
Outside of turbine engine parts, actual material costs are the same, but when you add in part history / material traceability that drives even sheet aluminum up.
