1973 1974 Woodgrain dash bezel

[jlmerie]

I was wanting to try and clean this up a little. I believe it is a 73/74 only woodgrain dash bezel. Any suggestions on making the woodgrain part a little brighter? Also, the chrome part of the gauge openings is dull and foggy. Is there a way to clean and polish that without destroying it? This dash bezel has a small chrome strip that runs around the outside border of the top and sides. Was this unique to 73/74. Thanks, in advance for any help.
