Need help with a cracked paint chipped bumper
I recently traded my 92si for a 96 sc300 and the front bumper was really messed up, so i decided to get it redone. I checked with local body shop for an estimate on a new paint-job for bumper and they were charging from 300-500..... So i was wondering if you Techs can help me out here. I got a front bumper with paint falling off and cracks around the headlights areas. Here are some pics. I am a noob so please bare with me >,<. please tell me what i have to do and what kind of products will i need. Thank you soo much!

Bumpers are the worst to restore.
Plastic sucks.. you can't just take the sander to it and take off the paint like on metal.
If you can get away with 300 buks, ur good.
It's a lot of work for the money.
