The later version had a face lifted front bumper and my understanding is that they are slightly different sizes.

Yes, you can get a splitter just make sure you buy the 08-09 type not the facelift one described above (2010-2011).

Yes - if you do a complete front bumper upgrade.
The grille attaches to the bumper, unlike earlier models.
