Default Chrome triM

I have a 92ls400 and it has chrome side door moldings. Most pics I see of ls400 's don't have the chrome, I'm wondering does anyone have the same chrome trim or does everyone take it off? ThNks cl

you can't take it off, it's not cheap trim. it fits the groove and the list price on new trim for the whole car is in the $800-1000 (you can't reuse it usually when you're repainting the car)
