its quite extreme as a transformation but i assure you its the same frame. It was shot blasted and then powdercoated in a faux chrome before laquer. Its not a bad shine, not as mirror like as real chrome but i quite like it that way. The main issue with powdercoating is the finish will never be as good as paint (.. thats applied well). It works best on frames with less detail and you have to be prepared to ream/tap everything afterwards.
