how to get door trim off?

[funkyboogalooo]

could someone tell me if they have removed the thin painted metal trim from the door panel? Mine have been grained in to look like the walnut dash but its chipped quite badly. I would like to either remove the paint and polish them or regrain, but i need to know how to get them off first.

can the trims be polished as they appear to be ally?
i was thinking of getting some ally ashtrays of leven as my plastic ones are broke so then the trims would match is they are aluminium!
