Default Paint around windshield

I've got a base model '07 Crossfire and the black trim on both sides and the top around the windshield has gotten very dull. I buffed out, but had to use heavy compond. not sure it will stay. I would like to replace with the brushed alum used on the highline vehicles --- anybody done this or know how I would do this?

So, the trim on the highline is painted silver not brushed alum?
