Hey all ..
I searched posts before asking but could find a straight answer ...
Should a 14" rally trim ring on a 1970 Challenger be brushed or polished?
My car was built 3rd week of June 1970.
Thanks in advance.

A 14" trim ring would be brushed w/a polished lip.

Thanks guys for the info ...
Now I have to find someone to restore the rings I have without making them polished.
They have a couple dings etc.. but are actually really nice set.
Do you all have any recommendations for a reputable business?

FWIW 1969
Dan... I appreciate you posting the good '69 trim ring pic. I had heard they were different because of the lip but had not seen one in person or seen a good closeup pic.
Thanks.
