Default Chevy Avalanche Front Clip

So im getting a 2002-2006 "like this body style" Chevy Avalanche or been looking for a 2002-2006 cadillac escalade EXT. So if I get a Chevy would the front clip off a caddi fit on the chevy just how my Jeep Cherokee change from 91 to 01 look. Im going to be doing another front clip change of this model veichle. Looks like I would need to change fenders too possible hood.

Hard to really tell but it looks like you will need to change all that stuff.

Its all bolt on stuff but you need a hood, fenders, bumper, grill, and lights. It would be perfect if you found a complete donor at a salvage yard or something and a bonus if the paint matched.

I was thinking of just getting the Grill, But the head lights are diffrent. I looked at a real Escla and the grill looks the same fit. but the chevy has that chevy chrome bar that strenches accrss between the lights.

I may go with the same way I did with my Cherokee. Just get the Grill and emblems. I may have to modd the grill alittle but should work. Not sure if I should paint the plastic trim matching color or not, the caddis came in Black or white one body color. Just like how im doing my Cherokee in Limited/Classic one color.

I found this image and the only one I could find of it. http://carphotos.cardomain.com/ride_...0050_large.jpg

If you look closely it kept my same fenders and possably the hood and changed the lights, grill and bumber. I would love to do just this. But as I said I cant find no more images of this truck, and the pic is not really clear in quailty.

Im guessing they cut the fenders..

And it also looks like 2013 is this years Last of Avalanche and Escalade EXT. Into the pit with the Cherokee XJ.
