Ok so I know the normal way to shave a bumper is the whole fill in with a filler, what I am wondering is can I literally "shave" it with sand paper and re paint? I mean just smooth it out completely with sand paper and re paint. It seems like it would work fine and be free besides paint?

Edit. Sorry if this is in the wrong section

I did some shaving on my euro bumper. but it was very little. I sanded some of the body lines off, but a word of caution, too much sanding in one area may weaken the integrity of the bumper. Look into a flexible filler that wont crack like bondo will.

That's probably what I should do... Its just so expensive for that stuff. But better safe than sorry plus it will likely end up cheaper in the long run... Thanks for the input =)
