the problem is that the gray trim is not sealed like the wood trim. I believe this is one of the reasons why the neffy wrap is nonreversible... the paint would just strip off

Well the wood trim is like 2K and the grey trim is like 200 bucks so there is a huge difference in quality?, lol. I remember someone traded their wood trim for the grey trim with carbon fiber overlay.
