Default Grille, headlights and bumper swap

Kid whacked a deer with our '03 Blazer. I found a '97 for parts, but have not been able to go see it yet. How much work is it to swap the 97 grille head;lights and bumper to my 03 fabrication wise. I'm hoping it will be pretty much bolt on and some wiring for the headlights.....

How close is the interior?

Junior butted heads with an 03 Blazer today SMH. Thinks he's Superman. Anyone know a good orthodontist who also does Lifelike Rack Prosthetics? Kid's real torn up in more ways than one with Prom coming up and all...

more seriously though, if the 97 is early enough second gen it's not a quad headlight lens, which totally changes the front clip and Grill between headlights.

I got a cool ghetto grill and lights on ebay or autoparts warehouse, $100. I needed a supporting piece, too, cant remember what it was, might have been the air baffle.
