Nice - Shadow Chrome was the term LR where using back in 2002 when we did some for them, not easy to do back then, we had a few failure in the water soak test. (The LR spec for powder coating was LRES22.OF.10.)they ended up being done in Italy.
Did some of these back then to show LR SV as well - not surprisingly a bit bling for them

I'm swapping to Pirelli ATRs soon, so want to get my standard D3 19s re-done in that 'dark chrome' coating. Who does those for you Ken? Perhaps you can do a tyre and wheel refurb package?Previously:

did this to a set of 8 spoke empi, realy crubby and corroded, chrome again, sand blasted first then powder coated.
Only kidding - at least now I know where to come to get them redone if they get scratched, not that I'd take those off-road LRs are a fond memory, apart from the maintenance.

He was probably afraid of damaging the paint getting some weights off again so put some on the otherside too. Roel
