Are you talking of taking your bumper to bits? or do you want to smooth your bumpers so they can be painted?

Actually take the bumper apart. I found a smooth'd tailgate and bumper with no. plate recess, was thinking of getting it, but it had been de-textured, and I wanted the texture on it, but google image quickly turned me against that idea. A bit too Max Power for my liking....scratch that, WAY too fkin Max Power for my liking
