Good luck 8)

Since it does not change the stock suspension, there will be no difference in how it is now - just it will be higher by 2".

From tyre to body
Dabdob if you have strong shocks just do like i did ... Add a leaf plus spacers
That should give you proper hight

just a bit of info from when I had my spacer lift guys, more for Abu Dhabi residents. The guys at muroor told me that they would not register the car with a spacer lift (even though it was only 1.5") and told me to get springs fitted instead, so I got a 3.5" coil lift and they registered it! Crazy I know, but it worked, but I'm not sure how it would go down in Dubai!

If we say 2" lift, it means an extra 2" plus on the old size.

You can measure where you like and it should be 2 more inches compared to before. Easy place to measure is from top of wheel to the fender, except if you also change tyres. It's best if you measure all four wheels so you see if there is a difference front/rear and left/right.

You can also measure from ground to bumper, to see if front and rear lifted by the same amount - sometimes you will get 1.5" in the front and 2.5" in the rear, not 2" equal.

That's what I did to my XJ one year ago.....now it is lower at the front, so I need to replace the spacers because they are beat up, Tintin was kind enough to offer me his......

That's very important news, tintin - because then forget spacers!!!

In all fairness though Paulo, it only takes about one hour to take them off at home so you can easily change them before rego then get them put back on after. I did my whole spacer lift with spacers and shocks in about 3.5 hours alone in my drive way, so any half decent tire shop should be able to pull the coils in about 30 minutes as they have the big lift and I used a bottle jack!
