downhuman Posted May 30, 2013 Share Posted May 30, 2013 So, after much thought I went with shadow chrome for my Rays. Thanks to Alex at the Wheel Specialist, East Grinstead I got a price match with their main competitor + wheel waxing and chrome valve chucked in. So pleased with the look - moody and awesome. Pics below - apologies for dirt but this is after driving home today ... more to follow once cleaned up again - when summer arrives! Appreciate comments as struggled to get pics of anyone with shadow chrome on a black 350z 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

downhuman Posted May 30, 2013 Author Share Posted May 30, 2013 (edited) Can't wait to get her clean again and take proper pics including those 'in the light' when they're darker Edited May 30, 2013 by downhuman Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
downhuman Posted May 30, 2013 Author Share Posted May 30, 2013 Oh and they weren't scuffed at all - only small amounts of lacquer flake Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kbeast35 Posted May 30, 2013 Share Posted May 30, 2013 they look thought that they would look a little darker but as you say its probably the light Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paddy78 Posted May 30, 2013 Share Posted May 30, 2013 Mine were trashed when I took them in to get refurb'd, loads of curbing and had started to corrode... previous owner honest Smoked chrome, but similar result. Like I said, can't rate the guys enough! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tinyflier Posted May 30, 2013 Share Posted May 30, 2013 I agree, they do a great job and Alex is sooooo patient! Easter time they refurbed mine, I thought long and hard about shadow chrome but went for one of their metallic silvers and flush valves instead. Very happy with their "de-kerbing" and powder coating work. David Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dayy Posted June 24, 2013 Share Posted June 24, 2013 They look great. I wish mine were in as good of a condition as that. Speaking of which, I am looking at getting mine refurbed soon. I don't suppose there is anyone in the North West you guys can recommend? (specifically close to Warrington). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
