I would agree with John on this. It is correct to have the trim run over the round disk. It does look strange that way.

I bought my car in the late 70's and it had the stainless trim on the pedals but no disk medalion. My car was heavily molested when I got it so it is not a good example to study for originality but when I restored that part of the car, I left the medalion off just the way I found it.
