I need help finding a source for the 10 sp chainrings (28-39-50) and FD that would fit my ultegra crank arms

I have used a 9 speed Shimano road rear derailleur to shift 10 speed road as long as you have 10 speed road shifters. Unless you want to change it for weight savings or another reason I would give the old RD a chance before mounting the new unit.
