Help me de-rice my RX7 please!!

Hey everyone - I own a 3rd gen that I love but its got a fake Veilside front bumper that Im starting to hate!! I really want to buy a stock front bumper but am having a LOT of trouble finding a junkyard that has ANY 3rd gen RX7s at all let alone bumpers :\

So I ask for your help fellow rotary owners! Does anyone know of a junkyard in the Western PA area (i live in pittsburgh but am willing to drive like 5-6 hours out, I just dont want to go so far that I have to stay overnight) that has a front bumper and the mounting hardware? Or is anyone selling one? Please let me know!! Paint doesnt matter since it will have to be painted titanium grey anyway, and condition doesnt matter as long as it isnt missing chunks (i can do minor fiberglass repairs like chips and tears) PM me, RE here, or email me at a.h.kuhn@gmail.com Ive called all the large junkyards in my area that I could find in the yellow pages and none even had 93-95 RX7s I put a WTB in the FS section and Ive only gotten one offer with mounting hardware but the guy is all the way in NYC :*(

Thanks everyone for your help

Can't Ray Crowe get skins real cheap? Plus he'll ship it. Then you can buy Banana turn signals to save some $$ there (I think Banana is the name). Only key will be the front rebar, hopefully they left it on with the aftermarket nose. Otherwise, that could be expensive.

How many parts do I need to bolt on a bumper? I need the skin, reinforcement, and mounting hardware correct? Anything else? Ive been able to find the skins on ebay pretty easy but its the mounting hardware and reinforcements that im having trouble getting. There is one reinforcement on ebay right now though that Im going to try to win
