Default sierra to silverado???

maybe im in the wrong area, but I have done a search and didn't come up with any usefull info. I was wondering if you could take a 2000 gmc front end and put a 03+ silverado front end on it??? Thanks ahead of time for the info.

that seems a little pricey from what I was looking at from certafit.com. maybe there is alot more to switch over than i am thinking too though. besides the obvious, hood, fenders, grill, lights, and bumper what else is there?

If you get aftermarket parts, it'll be cheap but who knows on fit; feeling lucky? Going OEM or OEM Recycled will fit easier, but of course costs more. I love the saying "you get what you pay for"

Fenders, Hood, Headlights/Park Lights, POSSIBLY Headlight mount panels... dont remember if they're different or not between GMC and Chev. I believe the only diff. on the bumpers is the upper pad and the lower valence, center bar and brackets should be the same if not the center bar may be slightly different, but the mount brackets should be the same.

everything from a 99-02 sierra or silverado needs to be changed to go to the 03-06 silverado, fenders, bumper, frame horns, bumper brackets, head lights, park lights, head light buckets, hood, grille
