The chrome trim, chrome bumpers and sail vinyl were part of the "appearance package" which cost extra money.
Yes, but the non-appearance group or non-sail/rollbar vinyl + chrome trim 914s were painted in the overall body color - not contrasting black, until the 1974 MY when the black trim option came out about the same time as the LE (& was included in the LE's options package).
So this was either a original buyer special request, or a later change to or painting of the trim to the black.
.... unless there was a different option available for this in Europe/RoW, & not available in the USA/North America??
