I was in the same position as you are now. I was totally sold by the F-Sport's exterior (and the badge 
) but the minute I sat down in the car, I didn't like the metalic look trims. I tried to like it but couldn't. To me it looks too plastic but some other will throw rocks at me for saying that. Although I really love the F-Sport, I chose luxury because I know I spend more time inside the car. Except the front grille (I don't know how hard to change out) the rest should be replaced fairly easily. IMO, I don't like modding the interiors. It's harder to meet your expectation because you can see more details. Ask the dealer to let you have the car for a day to see how you like one vs. the other.

I think you'd be surprised how much more expensive wood trim is versus aluminum trim:

The Luxury model's passenger side dashboard wood trim piece alone costs about as much as the F Sport front bumper cover, upper grille, lower grille, and rear valance combined.

Don't forget to factor costs for the side window shades and rear seat armrest controls for temp and audio, as well as the JDM fog light costs that you'll want to add.
IMO, get the lux package and swap out front facia and add the rear spoiler. If you get everything painted at the dealer you should have no problems with paint match.
