Do a search to see how others have painted their lowers and rear spoilers. The same concept can be used to paint your bumper. You could DIY and have it look almost professional if you get all the stuff needed. Basically paint, primer, different grade sandpaper, filler, and alot of patience. Check the DIY section also.
