I thought that was the Australians that used Zed constantly?

Any country that speaks English (not American ) says zed, because that is the proper pronunciation of that letter.

It's not metallic paint. It's called "chrome plating." It's not really chrome either (Silver Nitrate), and doesn't have the harmful effects. It's a chemical treatment which is similar to how they make mirrors nowadays. Jay Leno had a segment as well. It's pretty neat. They can chrome plate plastics. It involves a clean base coat followed by the treatment, which appears to be water-based.

What I would like to see is this treatment followed by a bit of tinting for a black chrome effect to tone down the "bling" factor.

Here's one of the videos:

That has to be tough to keep clean in England, it's always raining there.
Nice though, but it needs chrome wheels.

I have seen some great mods, not just functional but aesthetic of course, by many Z owners. However, I have NEVER seen a z like this before:
