If you were to remove this, would the paint below it buff out? Thanks

That is not trim...it is pin-striping. The custom exterior package included the white pin-striping on dark colored paint and a dark treatment on light colored cars. On Benny's car I know who did the application...because it was done on our Cortez Silver 69 L78. Most restorations rarely get this correct...and there was no paint between the rocker trim on dark paint cars.
**this option was available on a Nova...not just the SS version.
