What are you driving? To swap headlights on a blazer you will need the core support and a few other bits to swap the whole front end keep that on mind as well.

You sure do have rare tastes! Envoy bumper and headlights are extremely desirable, fairly rare, and usually expensive. Good luck!

He has a 98 Jimmy so he won't need the core support. I believe the Jimmy just has a plastic/fiberglass/whatever bumper cover over a steel support unlike the Blazer, which has a metal bumper. Technically, everything should bolt right up.

I wonder if the Envoy bumper works with Blazer headlights / grille or if they would clash.

I can never remember if the GMC/Envoy bumper comes up to meet the GMC headlights, or dips down to make room for the grille. Either way you'd have a gap between Chevy and GMC parts.
