[edit] Installation
If you have downloaded the omod version just turn it on and it works. If however you're still doing it the old fashioned way then extract the 'meshes' & 'textures' folders along with the 'Badmagic Chrome Dwarven.esp' to the following location.
Install Directory\Oblivion\Data\
Remember to activate the .esp file from the launcher before starting the game.
It’s also worth noting; although I will provide support where possible for people having issues with the 7-zip version, omod is the way to go folks, if you can’t use .net framework that’s fair enough but if you can I very strongly recommend OBMM and the omod format.
[edit] Where do I find the armor?
There is one primary location for the new armour and one secondary, the secondary only comes into effect once you have mastered mercantile.
The primary location is as follows:
Town: Cheydinhal Shop: Borba's Goods and Stores Vendor: Borba gra-Uzgash
The secondary location is as follows:
Town: N/A Shop: Wawnet Inn Vendor: Nurussa

[edit] Armour

All items (Weapons & Armour) are slightly better than standard Dwarven pieces by one or two small points, (e.g. 1 point extra damage, 2 points higher armour rating) but also cost slightly more gold to purchase.
* = Alternate model for female ** = Uses Tail slot, look at it this way a tail would fit inside Dwarven armour.
[edit] Special Mention
Aleanne very kindly gave me permission to re-skin her work, in this case her Dwarven style cuirass & Kafeid kindly said I could use her excellent goggles model. Without these items this mod would not exist.

[edit] Review by Galahaut
Hmm, another great armor and weapon mod. This mod makes great use of models made by the community (Aleanne's female cuirass and greaves & Kafeid's goggles) to create a unique looking set of Dwarven armor. The weapons are also well done and definitely feel like they belong with the armor. I'm also glad that this is a new set of armor and weapons, not a replacer. I'd rather have the armor be unique than see people walking around in it. Finally, the mod is pretty well balanced, with the new items only have slightly higher stats than their standard Dwarven counterparts. I would definitely recommend this mod if you're getting bored of the vanilla Oblivion weapons and armor.
