i had always been under the impression that the original shutface trim was
anodized on the BN1-BJ8.
page 53 of the anderson-moment confirms this, "The door shut face at the
back and the rocker panels were covered with textured anodized aluminum
trim pieces, ........."
The reproduction pieces I have seen are not anodized.
cheers,
