I know he decided to leave it, but, what I would do is simply paint the trim with either black appliance epoxy which dries to a nice not quite high gloss finish and is durable or have it powdercoated. Once installed you will not see it.
FWIIW, I have the door frames on my sedan painted with black appliance epoxy and it has held up well.
  It makes the frames less noticeable from more then a few feet away.
