In a medium bowl, combine spices. Stir in olive oil, sugar, and lime juice. Set half aside for brushing during grilling and add the shrimp to the other half. Let stand at room temp for one hour. Wrap shrimp with bacon, securing with toothpicks. Grill 5 inches from heat source, about 4 minutes on each side. Brush with marinade.
