Ok.....I am thinking of selling my KJ. I have two steel bumpers and they have surface rust on them. What do you guys recommend (what is the value of sanding down and repainting myself or sell as is)?

I would refinish them.
Start with a wire wheel on an angle grinder to remove all the paint and most of the rust.
Then use a sanding sponge.

Or you could save yourself the trouble of doing the rear and I'll send you my sport bumpers? Just a thought :wink:
