SWB front bumper the same as a LWB front bumper?

Just a quick question, which I believe I know the answer to, but wanted to verify...I'm going through some of my old parts and have a steel front bumper from a '67 912 that I'd like to use in a backdate someday. The front bumpers on the SWB and LWB cars are the same, right? But I'm assuming the rears are different? (..although the rear is not in a good a shape as the front so I doubt I'll use it.)

Do you guys think it would be a good idea to use an actual older bumper in a backdate project? I mean, would it be easier than trying to fit a fiberglass one? That's my understanding, but if I'm wrong I'll put it up for sale.

Thanks in advance!

I recently fit a LWB S front bumper to my SWB. The mounting brackets are not the same design and we had to fab something to attach it.
