Question Painted trim or aero kit on MCS

Any one got any pics of MCS with the black plastic trim painted to match the body colour ,mines DS/B ,and for comparison pics of aero kit with wheel arches painted in same colour as body ?

Is there much difference between the aero kit and the standard configuration of the side skirts and front and rear bumpers (fenders ?) on a standard MCS ?

I've been quoted £350 ( for US comparison $635 at todays exchange rate) to have all black plastic trim taken off and rubbed flat,painted to match body colour and reassembled,or should I spend the extra £1200 to have aero kit fitted ,in other words is it worht it ?

Thanks
