Default Supercharger Pulley upgrade

I am considering the upgrade. Are there downsides? Additional wear on the supercharger? It appears to be a bit out of my league to do the upgrade myself. The pulleys themselves do not look terribly expensive. What would I expect to pay an independent Jag shop to do this upgrade? I am located in Northern California.
Thank you.

My 2010 XKR which I've owned for 11 years has 211,000 miles on it now. Just after I bought it in 2013, I did the pulley upgrade as well as added a Eurocharged tune to the car, so if it adds extra wear and tear to the car, it forgot to tell mine. Still my daily driver, too good to give up.

Thank you. I realize it was a decade ago. Do you recall what the upgrade cost?
