will the front clip from an 08' fit on a 99 cab?

i was wondering because i want to make my truck look like an 08. do you think it will fit? i can get all the parts for next to nothing from my friend, but i don't want to start till i know for sure. if not i will just put in a 07 grille-headlights. that would be easier

The frame is different on the 08 trucks at the front.

It drops down further, notice the bumper mounts lower.

It's a good swap idea - I'd like to do an Excursion like that.
