Do Aero rear bumpers have textured wheel arch edges to match the rest of the arch

Im after a rear aero bumper and am worried that the textured finish on the std. wheel arches wont look as if they are following through to the rear bumper.The reason i ask is some one has told me they come primed with smooth arch sections.

My aero kit is actually smooth, from the factory. I really didnt notice until we were detailing it and I ran my hand across it. Its ok, since I am getting them color coded anyways..

They come smooth - but I've been told they paint them using a technique so they match, if you want.

I'll know for sure soon - I've got one on the way.
