Knee Pad Trim, Do all MY cars have it? Options

My 73 knee pad is missing the bright strip as seen in the pic below from an old FS ad. I kind of like the look without but wondering if mine originally had one. If so, I suppose I need to track one down. Thanks.

Thanks Tom! Thorough and helpful as always.

The build date on my car was 4/5/73 and yes, it is a mix and match car. It did have plastic thresholds, but has early door handles with the chrome base. Also, one early and one late rear targa latch. It has late brake lines but with an early rear brake proportioning valve (that made ordering a replacement hard line kit fun). The most interesting was that it had one late and one early rear caliper (lates on the front). I have receipts of some brake work from the PO (second owner) but no mention of anything other than pads. The 2nd owner bought the car in 76 so the OO didn't have it very long. I love my bottom of the parts bin oddball.

Your answer perfectly satisfies my question and makes me happy both because it is one less expense to worry about, and I'm not a big fan of bling so happy to have the minimalist knee pad.
