Default shaved stock front bumper

Anybody do this yet? I'm thinking about just smoothing out the entire bumper- Z emblem, bumper lights, etc. Post pics if you did it.

damn that must suck. I would probably shave the bumper lights if you are getting a lip because i think if you shave the stock bumper, it would look too plain but i may be wrong. It might actually look good.

Roughly, how much does it run you to repaint an OEM front and shave the emblem?
