only diffrence is the front grill the new 06 & 07's have two slits and the color is gun metal also the middle part of the bumper is some sort of lip, the older 03-05 have 3 slits and the grill is black.

The reflector area is also different, as well as the actual reflector.
Fitment is just the same for all years though. Just be advised when looking into front lips.

+1. I have a 06 front end on my 04. I believe the rear is the same for all model years.

i would advise getting the 06+ front splash shields/fender liners as they are bigger than the ones you have now, and will not be held in place by the slightly wider 06+ bumper. just so they don't get torn all to ****e on you.

I put a 06 bumper on my 03. it fits great, the body shop guy had to make some minor changes, but he said it was easy.
