i'm a bit stuck on what to do with the metal strip that go around the trim on the back of the back seat & the tailgate....

i have bee told that they were originally galv' but i not sure i like that look but i have see any like that... other than that they can be chromed which sound flash but will be durable, as far as rust is concerned
so can i see what you guys have done with these strips...some pics would be good if possible, as this would help my desicion making proccess...
thanks
