Can a front bumper be refinished?

I have a 97 Acura CL 3.0 and having a hard time finding a front bumper that doesn't cost a fortune. The one I have had some paint chips and damage, but no dents. Can these be refinished or does a new bumper need to be used?

Thanks,

Matt

It can be fixed .. if its just chips and minor scratches you just got to get the correct bondo or glaze for plastic and then primer and prep for paint.

Thanks. I located the body shop that the local Acura dealer uses. Gonna bring it by there one day and have them take a look and give me an estimate.

Thanks,
