I have the standard tail tidy, I did forget to spec the carbon version. You can see the carbon version looks better:

Just to check (as I am speccing mine) - do you mean you have the standard numberplate/fog light as opposed to the "tail tidy" version?
There is 1) standard 2) plastic tail tidy 3) carbon fibre tail tidy
I am assuming you have 1 and not 2 - and that the plastic tail tidy looks the same as the carbon one - just made of plastic?
Yes to confirm, I have the standard "free or no cost option" numberplate/fog light holder and neither of the tail gate tidy options. You are correct there are 2 additional paid for options. 1, a composite version of the tail gate tidy which looks just like the carbon fibre version (without a border and a cleaner reversing light), then the carbon fibre version which I posted.
I think the carbon version is worth the money, and I just simply forgot to spec it. That said of course priorities need to take precedence, as an example if it were a choice of a lap counting GPS08 module over this then I'd take the GPS module.
I will soon being doing a video walking around the car, talking about all the options on the sheet and explaining what they all are, this will hopefully be helpful to others spec'ing their 4's. I wish I had something like this when I was specing mine. i.e. what does a road tow hook look like instead of a race version, what does 3" belts give you over the stock 2" ones, where does the USB mount sit in stock option form, where does the remote brake bias controller sit, what do the wings look like up close and can the exhaust be removed with them on etc etc.
