Default 71 t-top trim help

Hi guys, I took the day off to redo my weatherstrip on my t-tops.
The outer strip with 4 screws that holds the w/s in place (not necessary to remove), but I thought I'd clean it up. What color should it be, flat blk, semi-gloss blk, or chrome? thanks

also, the inside 2 inches of the t-top, flat blk or same color as the interior.

thanks again

I used the DupliColor TP-70 for all the interior trim including the seat backs on the 71. Good match for the original trim color with the BLACK interior.
