Default looking to do a front clip conversion on my 91 S10 blazer

Like the title says, I'd like to put a newer model s10 blazer/s10 front clip on mine. I've seen some pretty wicked clip swaps on google but just no write up or supply lists or what not. Any of yall have any idea for me or pictures? Thanks!

I think there would be a whole lot of custom body work to get from a 91 to a 95+ The problem is the body is so square compared to the 95+

That's what I was afraid of.. I wouldnt mind replacing core supports, and doing a little body work, but if its going to take a long time, ill just end up putting all new parts and getting the "euro" clear lense head lights.

Anything can be done with time and money... ive seen first gens with colorado front clips, first gens with caddy xlr front clips ect. it all depends on how much work you want to do, and time.

if you REALLY want to do it, your best bet would be just getting the grille and bumper, and keeping your hood, and fenders, and cutting and molding the fenders to match the grille, as well as the hood. Would be a lot of work, but definitely possible.
