I guess there are lots of different 209 bumpers and therefore different "air inlet grates", but my Googling seems to indicate that this bumper was OEM 2003-2005:

I really like that long body-color slat. Then, from 2006-2009(?), the OEM bumper is this one:

....which is what I have. I do prefer the 3 slat grille, but the lower part is not as finished as the older one. Do I have my model year facts straight?

Yup! You are correct, Like I said, I will be installing an AMG front bumper in a few weeks so I will have the 03-05 OEM bumper for sale along with the 3 slat grill.

I will consider it, though I will have to factor in install expense and repair of those four holes. Maybe you'll do a detailed DIY post so I can consider self install!

The bumper will be priced to sell. I really don't want to have to store it. I could download the install instructions off WIS and post them a little later

It's not that hard to install yourself. There is a W203 headlight swap DIY... part of that is removing the bumper. Some bolts, a clip on each side... The hardest part is putting the bumper clips back in place.

Yeah, gotta agree.

There's quite alot that's different from a 63 front end.

Damn Gary! That's exciting. I should've hit up the mafia to grab a loan for the front bumper. Really regretting it already.
