im guessing stainless .. everything else but the headlight surounds is. it was a pain to unbend one of the slats in it.

It's all aluminum on the grill and inner headlight surrounds. Outer are chrome plated pot metal. Hood trim and grill surounds are stainless.

You can see the anodize missing in a spot on the grill. It can be cleaned with mild rubbing compound like white but too much rubbing you'll wear through. Some remove the anodize with lye and polish the bare aluminum or re anodize it.

once the anodize gets cloudy, there isn't much you can do with it
its well past just white rubbing compound. going to take some fine wet paper and elbow grease. il polish it up and clear it.
don't think il get the door thing done before snow fly's. il spend the winter snowed in dealing with all that trim. ..lol
