Is that primer, off to the line to refit as an MRTT, then final painting?

the tweet says that its rumoured to go for VIP alterations but do they repaint it after?

MRTT based ON A330-800 (NEO) seems to be a go:

After several years of studying the idea, Airbus launched a version of its popular A330 Multi-Role Tanker Transport (MRTT) based on the A330-800neo airliner.

Are our new Airbuses able to be converted into the MRTT+ vs the MRTT? I am assuming not as they are based on different airframes?

MRTT+ is based on a different airframe.
