I'd advise against smoothing in the bumpers as you'll be forever getting cracks in the bodywork. Especially if you catch the bumper on speed bumps. The sideskirts should be ok. You might be best of asking a bodyshop how they'd do it. I think they would probably use fibreglass/Filler.

Then I stress you DO NOT smooth in the front and rear bumpers because it will crack and cause more work than it's worth.
