I know someone who fitted the later colour coded facelift rub strips to their car. It's what ever floats your boat!  :y

Thir Irmscher clad models had body coloured strips. But had chrome. They were non textured. Trying to prime & paint standard fit ones would be a mare due problems keying up the mouldings to get the paint to stick. Easier long term to fit new primed smooth ones although potentially expensive knowing Vx proces

I'm sure that some one will come along with prices but IIRC the facelift nudge strips are somewhat cheaper than the prefacelift £55 front & £35 rear nudge strips  :o
