I want to replace my front bumper and headlight with a 1997 because the junkyard does not have a 1995 will this still fit?

I do not think it will as I believe they changed the front end in 1997.

1997 was the last year for the second generation. The 1995-1997 nose (bumper cover, reinforcement, headlamps, header panel) will all interchange. Fenders will interchange 1995 - 2002.
It is possible to even put the entire nose up to 2002 on the 1995 but you have to change a lot of parts to do it.
