I do not believe the center piece of the radio grill was ever originally chrome or stainless, just painted. The paint continued over the stainless middle portion of the glove box cover, leaving only stainless strips top and bottom clear across. I suppose if you really like the entire glove box shiny like it is now, you could have the radio grill piece chrome plated, but I am not sure how that would match the stainless piece.
