    SWT Trim Strips

    Are the small trim pieces at the bottom on the Soft Window Targas chrome or polished aluminum?

    Thanks,
    John

    Yes - it's a thin, semi - springy steel that's chrome plated.

    Thanks for the input. I have a pair of these and I'm sending some things out for plating and I will send them along.

    I took mine to Christensen Plating in LA. They do a lot of work for Pebble Beach cars. Jose' there said mine were stainless steel and all they needed were to be polished. They look beautiful.
