"will the 89+ bumper and lights fit directly onto the 88 body?"

Yes it will. I have an 89+ bumper on my 87.

Good luck with the head gasket job. Make sure you clean everything good like the mating surfaces of the EGR valve the intake manifold and intake chamber, the ISC valve (if you take it off), and the water outlet housing. On my engine, every single gasket was stuck (couldn't scrap off even with a razor blade, which I highly advise NOT to use on aluminum) on the parts I just mentioned. Took alot of patience and time but its worth it. I hope you don't snap any bolts or strip any threads. Take your time!!
