Default Blazer front clip on Jimmy?

Is it possible to swap Headlights and grille from a Blazer to a Jimmy?
I personally like the look of the Blazer better (but I wouldn't want the bowtie there).
Is that an easy swap or is there more tho change on the Jimmy?

everything is possible if you have the time, money, and ingenuity to do it haha.

I've never done it or have experience but, to think about it, i believe you'd need all the lights, grill and mounting gear along with redoing the headlight wiring, turn indicators, and so forth.

Bumpers are different. GMC bumper dips down for the grille on the 98+ whereas the Blazer bumper is flat.

headlights are way nicer on the jimmy imo. the blazer looks silly with the orange strip signal light and dinky headlight lens.
