Default 2003 Vert, what exactly is it?

I just got a 2003 Convertible last Summer, a 6 speed and it is Quick Silver and has the emblems on the front and back that have the 50 Anniversary at the top of them with a gray border.
I know there is a 50th Anniversary edition car which this is not but what is mine designated as? It has every option except the adjustable suspension which I am pretty glad it doesn't have after seeing what those shocks go for.
I've been trying to find emblems for it that have chrome around the edge if there is such a thing but I've seen emblems like mine advertised as 50 Anniversary and such. Do all 2003's have the same emblems with the gray border and the 50 anniversary at the top other than the actual red Anniversary Edition car which has it's own special emblem?
I've just been wondering if there are different designations of these 2003's other than the Red Anniversary Edition.

Yes I saw those also, somebody posted a link here the other day to me about them. I thought about doing the same thing too if I could have found them {cutting the little piece from the old ones} but after seeing what they get for these original plastic ones I don't know. I've seen these gray ones for as high as $192 for just one
Those Chrome ones really look nice, did you have to bend your front one like some have said.
I'd love to get a set of those if they were still made. I saw another variation of the 50 Anniversary ones but the flags had flame looking edges to them. I guess they would go good with those damn flame style tail light louvers though
I'd buy a set of the ones like you got though in a heart beat if somebody had them for sale.
