They are a huge difference. The aspec side skirts go straight down for a litlte, then come outward towards you to the very bottom. The reason they come outward is so that they can reflect light differently, JUST AS THE FRONT AND REAR do.

So from a side shot, they will be reflecting light in the same manner. Without the aspec side skirts, it will look, ....well, empty.

If you had a type-s, that's a different story. The type-s side skirts already come SLIGHTLY flared outward, but it doesn't go all the way down like the aspec side skirts do.
