Man, the paint job turned out looking good. I like the shine of the paint and the wheels look awesome.

I like the look of the 88-91 Suburban and Blazer front ends on the 87 down trucks. What all had to be changed over - just the radiator support, grill and headlight buckets?

Yeah, you're on the right track with the parts you listed plus a few miscellaneous parts. Check out GChemist's website for the conversion details.
