08+ tailgate comparison?

this should be a quick answer for someone. up until now, i thought the 08+ tailgates looked like this: http://i40.tinypic.com/23jl4hs.jpg

on the road yesterday, i saw one like this with the addition upper body line: http://i1165.photobucket.com/albums/...ps3f6b9d3a.jpg

i thought, hmm, maybe its new for 2015 or 2016 or something. then i started googling and it seems some have it some dont. can someone clarify this for me, as well as are they different other than the additional body line? both still fit 99-07's?

thanks!

You will need tge drivers side roll hinge to replace. Direct bolt on and only like $20 at the local dealer. Use some heat when removing the torques head bolts as they are covered in red pasty loctite.
