Yeah, the base trim bezel is underneath. I did the new aluminum stick-on deal. The fit isn't perfect. In fact, I ended up buying a new bezel-- got the best price from a GM dealer, in fact. Once I get around to installing it, I'll have the old one up for sale.

Something had managed to get onto the brushed aluminum on the old one, causing white spots. It's just a covered plastic backed with adhesive. The actual bezel underneath is the same, regardless of trim level.

The original brushed aluminum trim from the factory actually does have the slightest hint of bronze in it- always did. The stick-on deal is a bright aluminum color that doesn't quite match the dash and door trim the way the factory aluminum bezel does.

Just my experience and 2 cents.
