here is another pic.

So how does it look in person? I've been wanting to get stuff metalized for a while now, (esam visors and various interior parts) the people I've spoke to said that the bigger the piece the more flaws that will be present, and it's not a permanent process. Some orange peeling/faking can occur, and it's all dependent of what it's exposed to. What's your experience with it?
