Default Body questions for a 1997 Accord DX.

Since I'm a newbie, I can't post this in the othe forum because of my trial status. I have both front and back bumpers that have some cracked areas on it in the paint, scratches, etc, that obviously compound doesn't get out.

I was wondering, these parts seem to be plastic. If I take my car to be repainted, would they have to replace the entire bumper or can they smooth it out and repaint it? I've never done auto body before so don't make fun of me for asking this. he he
