you would need to swap the hood, bumper, headlights and fenders to make it fit correctly.

People have done front end swaps but just hood swaps are not possible.

IMO the 7th gen front end is kinda ugly, just keep the 6th gen front end.

Agreed The 06/07 front end reminds me too much of an Impala

7th gens are just misunderstood.

No offense intended Tadd, but if you changed the front bumper on your Monte it would look identical to the Impala.
