Ash tray Paint or Plate

["James Richards" <jmr407@mindspring.com>]

All,

I am in the process of installing a new center console cover in my
69/1600.  I am trying to determine if the ash tray cover and metal plate
that houses the map light and cigarette lighter was originally plated or
painted.  

I am also interested in what other Roadster owners have used to
rejuvenate the appearance of these two pieces.
