Here's a couples pics from Popular Mechanics of the 2008 GC...

Jeep will unveil this slightly facelifted Grand Cherokee to the public next week at the New York Auto Show.

Up front, the headlights are rearranged so that the larger lens is on the outside, overlapping the inner. The grille is slightly larger—deeper really—but retains the same seven-slot Jeep trademark style. Bumpers sweep in one unbroken surface, minus the double bumps of current styles. Finally, it appears that running lights are set lower in the fascia, flanking a wider air intake.

At the rear, changes are even more subtle. Taillight composites offer amber turn signals lenses, while the new lower fascia has a smoother surface—sans trailer hitch—and a bright cross bar just above new reflector lenses.

I believe that's a spy shot of the export model. The bumper reflector lenses have been on every GC, but only on exports.

Yeah those rear lights are called "rear fogs" for BUX models

Possibly the nose cover is hiding an intercooler for the diesel version?
