Unhappy Aero Rear Bumper with standard unpainted Sides and Front???URGENT

I recently had my stock MCS bumper damaged and Ive found a pretty good deal on an aero rear bumper, but i cant get a good picture to tell whether i could put an aero rear bumper and keep my normal black trim and skirts on? Thanks

Hi - here's a rear view of my Cooper which has the Aero bumpers but MCS skirts - I think it looks great! My car is colour coded though but at least it gives you some idea

Well I dont think it would look odd as i am in the process of changing the front bumper to an aero but still keeping the orginal s side skirts and rear bumper as standard

Yeah that looks really good, the biggest thing i was worried about was the paint, i wasnt sure how the aero rear bumpers trim pieces would match up with unpainted, is that little bit of trim at the back of the fender wells the same black textured plastic thats above the fenderwells?

I asked for mine to be fully colour coded but even though the bumper comes in one piece, normally I think they paint up the wheelarch part of the bumper to match the wheelarch itself with grey textured paint - do a search in the galleries and you should see lots of Aero kits on display.
