I'm guessing from paint work I used a credit card and hair dryer to get the thick of it off as a soft cloth, tar remover and loads of elbow grease persevere though it will come off eventually

May be worth bonding your spiltter back on, selling the bumper and buying a standard one. Might make a few quid too

I mean to swap the bumper straight over so you don't have to take splitter/grill/plate off.
