68 LWB Fleet - Bumper ?

So, I'm looking to clean up the looks and pull and store the factory step bumper, and swap on a painted sport bumper. This brings 2+ questions to mind;
1) Will the sport bumper bolt up to the step bumpers brackets?

I've seen in other posts where folks are getting the chrome sport from RockAuto - as they believe the "rechrome" is a factory original (good steel, not the China junk steel used on most repops).
2) So, should I get the chrome and pay the extra to get the "OEM bumper core" and strip paint the silver to match the front, mirrors and grill surround?

2a) Or buy a painted repop bumper and hope for the best...(any of these using the "OEM Core" good US Steel?

2b) Or, should I post in the WTB classified section? Already check Ebay & Craigslist, nothing local at all (would likely be rusty anyway)…

Thanks! Mike
