The invention is directed to a decorative vehicle element including a, preferably radio-transmissive, substrate having a first surface on a first side and a second surface on a second side; and a first surface, preferably radio-transmissive, decorative coating on the substrate, the decorative coating including a decorative layer consisting of a metal or consisting of an alloy including a metal; as well as a radar system including a radio wave transmitter, a radio wave receiver and a decorative element, especially radome.

First surface decorative element

A decorative radome including a radio-transmissive substrate having a first surface on a first side and a second surface on a second side; and a first surface radio-transmissive decorative coating; methods of manufacturing a PVD coated system include applying a hard coating to the substrate; applying a PVD coating by magnetron sputtering to the substrate; and laser etching one or more of a pattern or a graphic into the PVD coating; and A decorative PVD coated item, comprising: a substrate; a hard coating applied to the substrate; a PVD coating provided on the hard coating and the substrate, wherein the PVD coating is laser etched with one or more of a pattern or a graphic so that the PVD coating is at least partially removed and the pattern or the graphic is revealed as a result of the contrast between the substrate and the PVD coating.

Decorative PVD coated items and radomes and methods of making same

A method of producing a decorative radome includes providing a substrate having a first surface and a second surface; applying, to at least a portion of the second surface of the substrate, a decorative layer including a layer of a metal or an alloy having a metal and a metalloid; and overmolding at least the decorative layer with a radio-transmissive polymer to provide an overmolded layer as well as a decorative radome having a first layer with a radio-transmissive polymer, the first layer having a front surface; a second layer having a radio-transmissive polymer, the second layer having a rear surface; and a decorative layer, between at least a portion of the first and second layer.

Decorative radome and method of producing the same

The present disclosure relates to a cover for at least one antenna emitting or sensing electromagnetic radiation in at least one first frequency band, the cover includes at least one first surface facing the antenna and at least one second surface averted to the antenna, where the cover includes at least one substrate being transmissible for electromagnetic radiation and at least one first coating covering the substrate in at least one first area, the first coating being transmissible for electromagnetic radiation of at least the first frequency band, whereas the first coating is reflective for electromagnetic radiation falling onto the second surface and having a frequency within at least one second frequency band.
