front grill question

hey guys. i just noticed that the updated model of the CLK has a 3 slat star grill. i looked at mine, it has 4 slats.

so my question is will the updated 07-08 3 slat fit into my 03 without modifications?

Couldn't tell you. If your going to wrap it you could get the reps on eBay for around $100. They aren't bad, the star alone costs $50...
