on my car is molding around the windows and the two strips on the roof of the car. It is not gold plate. The 300E is gold plate and the Mercedes emblem is gold plate. But not the molding. What is it. it looks brass and could have been gold in color before. Now it is very oxidized. What shoudl it look like or should I say what did it look like when it was new?
I want to restore it

The metal is anodized (spelling?), gives it that bronzey color. It fades alot over time.
If you find someone who can restore and match the color...post it please. My new top windshield trim is way darker than than the rest of the metal parts !! Darn UV rays.
