Predator SPWU Bumper (First Edition)

Apologies if I've posted this in the wrong section but wasn't too sure about where to pose my query.

Following a bit of a spree during the pandemic, I acquired a Predator SPWU (First Edition). In very good shape and hits well. However the bumper has seen better days. Does anyone know if any of the spare bumpers that Predator currently stocks would fit as a replacement?

I was thinking that the 1st Gen Ikon Bumper or the P2 Bumper might do the trick but thought I'd see if any learned Predator owners may share their wisdom.

That bumper doesn't look too bad if you were concerned about keeping it original. While it's a pressed-in bumper, I think you can actually press in a current threaded bumper as the diameter looks about the same and the threads are rubber.
 
For these I usually live thread the butt for a Predator screw in plug which will take an extension.
A shame I'm not in your part of the world. It'd be nice to plug for an extension to match - like Predator's latest QR2 extensions...

I wasn't sure if the bumper was original or not - I can make out a faint triangle. Not sure if this was the norm at the time.

Out of the bumpers I originally suggested, which do you think would make the better fit?
