Red grill surounds

Posted this on faceBook, figured I'd try here. I bought my 68' Barracuda in 1977. It was bright Blue. But had red grill surounds and red around the tail light panel. Itwas an odd combination. Looked factory, but someone could have done it themselves. I painted the car black, and it definetly looked better. Over the years I've seen other Barracuda's with simial treatments. Was this an option from the factory or just happens theeat some people do this to their cars?
