Have to agree with Dave on this one. I would THINK (not my best arena.... I quit getting lost in thought, as I feel like a total stranger there) that whatever plating was done, it was done after the part was formed. IF they are in fact galvanized, it certainly looks like electroplate galvanizing to me. After a few years, that plating would be virtually indistinguishable from silver cad to the naked eye.
Any chemists on here? Any test I can run on one of the bent up dust shields I have to determine finish? Three of the four extras are as nice as the ones on Tim's 8900 mile car. The fourth one; not so much.
