That was when he was still with Lucky Craft. His new ones are with Lucky Strike and quite cheaper.

Lots of work involve in removing the old one and I don't know if you can buy just bills?

If you figure out how to do that, let us all know. I have several with broken bills.

like ive seen some tackel stores online that have squarebill i just dont know if it would work if i could somehow get the bill off the old one

You can find the bills around, maybe in tackle parts stores.

You'll have to use a drumel, file, or other small sanding device to get the old bill out as they are usually glued in place with an epoxy of some sort.
