88 suburban bumper to 77c30

Any unforseen consequences to mounting a front 1988 1/2 ton suburban bumper to a 1977 c30?
I think the bumpers are pretty much the same exept the burb bumper is chrome but don't know for sure.

Well, when I put the 1980 front clip on my 1988 K5, I ended up having the 1988 front bumper crunch in the fenders because it's not quite as wide as the 1970's front clip.
