Replacement front bumper

I live in Vancouver, BC. My 1990 500 SL was struck and the front bumper damaged beyond repair. Does anyone out there have, or know where I might find, a repacement bumper in Canada or the U.S. I would, of course, cover all shipping costs.
If one is available in the U.S. i can have rhe bumper shipped pre-paid to Point Roberts,WA.

Front Bumper Switch

I have a 98MY SL 500 with some damage to the front bumper. I too need a replacement. However, I would like to switch the front bumper to the style of the earlier SL500's, (the style of the MY 1992). Does anyone know if the previous style will bolt on to 1998? If it does i will also need to change the fog lights as well. If anyone has made this switch or knows that the previous style will bolt on directly to my 98, I would appreciate it.

Thanks
Chris
