Your best bet is to remove it, bring it to an anodizer that has chromic acid, have them strip the anodizing, then you will have bare aluminum in nearly it's original finish. Then you can decide how much work you want to put into restoring any scratches, pitting, etc. Huge rabbit hole for something like an old Mercedes.

Easiest best way to go for "nice" trim is to strip it, polish it, and clear it with Cerakote MC-5100. Put it back on.
