If it's like duplicolor or herculiner xylene will remove it. they sell it in gallons at sherwin-williams for a good price.

Take the bumper off and torch it That would be what I would try. I would bet that if you heated the back side of the bumper it may peel right off. Not sure tho. It's always amazing how something like that peels in places so the rest should come off easy. Right? Wrong!! the rest of it is stuck like a fat kid on cake
