I am going to get rid of mine soon (bought a new one)...but the only problem is mine needs to be sanded and painted. I'm getting rid of it because there are several chips here and there, scratches, etc. It is structurally good still. The only problem is that these bumpers are a PITA to sand down completely and repaint (flex primer, paint, clear coat, etc.)94 Black T/A GT, Advanced Induction 355, 3200 stall, built 4L60E, Moser 9", Baer Brakes, Shooting for 11s...

I'd never try to sand one down by hand... Just paint on the stripper and wait. The old paint will wipe right off.Tracy

Yea, been there. Tried to hand sand the front bumper...you wouldn't believe how many ripples and valleys and bumps showed up.
The only thing about the rear bumper is that it is deeply chipped in some areas, I would think it would be needed to be sanded by hand....as other areas are fine. There's a large gap of the higest spot of good paint, to the lowest spot of chipped/gouged primer. However I never tried the liquid stripper before so I don't know how well it would work in this case94 Black T/A GT, Advanced Induction 355, 3200 stall, built 4L60E, Moser 9", Baer Brakes, Shooting for 11s...
