Default Front Bumper Upgrading

Hey everyone,
I'm just looking to upgrade my XK (2007) front bumper , my question is if I change the bumper to an XKR bumper (07) is the depth of the bumper closer to the ground? I ask as I don't wish to have to change the side sills/skirts but obviously wish to keep the straight line of the car. Did the depth change with the new nose cone?

Also on the 07 XKR whats the part numbers of the wire gaurds protecting the fog lights? I'm looking for the chrome or black mesh replacements? Pic of the area in question (circled red)


Thanks folks..

As for the height, I believe XKs and XKRs have the same exact side skirts/sills. However, in the picture, I think that is some sort of aero-pack deflector on the bottom, which my XKR does not have.

Search the site a bit, we have had another member do a similar front end upgrade, and could provide valuable info...
