Gen5 Faded door trim?

I have a question. About 3 years ago, my '02 XLE was involved in an accident, and as a result the rear driver-side door had to be replaced. Over time, the black metal trim on that one door has faded and is almost starting to look a little corroded. My question, is there anything I can do to fix this and restore the shine so it matches the rest of the doors? This obviously isn't a major issue, but it just annoying to me more than anything. Pics below.
