Default Under-bumper deflector...same between early & late 3rd gens?

Is the little black plastic deflector/airdam under the front bumper the same part for '02-05 models and '06-08 models?

I am not sure on this, but I think the 06-08 will not be the same.

Thanks! Dealer wants $128, and best price I've been able to find for an '08 application is $105 shipped, but one can be had on ebay (listed application is '02-05 SLT's) for about $80 shipped.

Could be all in my head, but I'm pretty sure I lost about 1mpg (if not more) at highway speeds w/o the deflector.
