If you keep the standard one it probably won't stay standard for long? Perhaps make one good out of them both for daily and track if you must but I dont hear any real passion to do so and it just sounds like they are in the way at the moment for you.

My friends old one back up for sale, using photos I did for him for the sale.
Driven it and went very well with the map.
Spray can in silver will look even worse and like you've tried and failed.
As above silver stickers, vinyl, tape, or small brush and hammerite the areas.
It honestly does sound like you care though as you want it fixed so I would spend £30-£40 on a second hand wing off eBay or a breakers in...
Great to see someone ploughing some money into a 5 and not on making it completely OE spec... !
Get a video sometime of it mate, love the sound of a C1J, miss mine loads, been sat in my other garage since 2011 dead :(

Hate to say it.. but maybe it's a blessing in disguise.. ? You will get to know the car and everything about it in no time?
It's extremely bad luck though mate
Wait a month and someone will have refurbished the wheels, swapped the door, chucked a ball joint and shocks on it, replaced or fixed the PS pump/pipe leak and sell to you with 12 Months MOT as a 1 lady owner mint low mileage decent example for £4,500 lol
£500 is a complete bargain. Just hope...
