320 APEX Trigger After Voluntary Upgrade?

Has anyone changed over the trigger on their 320 after the voluntary upgrade was completed on their pistol?
I had an APEX flat trigger on my 320 prior to the upgrade and loved it, I removed it before returning to SIG for the UG.
I contacted APEX, super great Customer Service and easy to deal with I must say. They sent me an RMA and shipping label to return my old trigger for full credit towards any of their products.
I see they offer a couple of "Advanced Triggers" one flat and one curved. I was thinking about getting one, but wanted to poll the members here and see if anyone has been down this road?
Thanks-

I got a new Curved Advanced Trigger for one of my upgraded P320s. It feels the same as the old one did before the upgrade, in other words, much better than stock.

When I got my second one back, Apex had just announced their Trigger Bar. I decided to go ahead and spend the extra $75 bucks to get the Trigger Bar along with the Advanced Curved Trigger for the second gun. I won't say it's the best $75 I ever spent, but it's the best $75 I've spent recently.

Specifically:

The Advanced Curved Trigger profile is flatter than a factory curved trigger and curvier than a flat trigger. I like it better than either of the extremes.

The trigger bar kit is actually three pieces. The trigger bar, a bushing that slides over the stock over-travel pin, and a tiny spring to keep the bushing from sliding side to side on the pin.

I don't have a real trigger scale, but with my "redneck trigger scale" I estimate about 5.5 pounds using the center of the trigger and 4.5 pounds at the end of the trigger.

The shot breaks at the same spot as the Apex Advanced Trigger without the bar, which is about the same spot (or just a bit behind) as a factory trigger.

The over-travel is definitely reduced.

The "feel" or “click” of the reset is about the same. It also happens at about the same spot as it did with the factory parts or with just the Apex trigger. Since the over travel is reduced, the travel back to the reset point is also reduced.

I think take-up has also been reduced a bit.
