ISP West sells both aluminum and stainless steel versions of the side  trim 
(8 pcs). I actually prefer the stainless, even if it's about 20 bucks  
more, as I can re-polish it (IF it ever gets a dent), or tries to dull. You  
can't do that with the aluminum, as it's anodized, and you're only polishing  
the thin clear coat on it). Plus the SS version still holds it's shine 
better.  Note; this is just my opinion, and I have it on 2 of the cars in my yard 
(I  sold the 3rd one). I think I think I paid 150 for the side trim I used 
on my  71 Notch (might have been with shipping since it was a few years ago). 
Keep in  mind that it still uses the OE VW or repop clips to hold it in 
place. : )
