If you are saving a custom curtain wall panel or frame, then you have no real control over the materials.

The script will set what you have chosen in the 3D elements that you use when you save the panel of frame.

So set the elements up as you want before you save the custom panel or frame.

 

If you are trying to edit the script, then you are looking for the lines that start with - material ....

There may be a lot of them, and you need to change the name in quotes to material you want - must be spelt exactly as an existing material in your attributes.
