Default White crap on bumper

I've got some crap on the front bumper. It's covering the majority of it, and I haven't found a way to get it off. I was gonna see if anyone might know a trick to get rid of it, short of repainting it...I've tried just about everything I can think of. Here's a pic.

If anyone has some decent advice, I'd appreciate it.

Looks like dead bug juice that was left on the paint to long. I would use a dedicated bug remover like Poorboys bug squash:

Fallow that up with a clay bar to get even more off. Those are the first two steps I would try. You have left it on to long and it has etched the paint so hopefully for your sake you haven't. That Poorboys stuff its awesome the bug remover takes off the love bugs we have really well.

"I" haven't left it on too long. I bought the car a little over a month ago, and it was like this. But I'll give that stuff a try, and see what happens. THanks.

Well I tried the stuff...it definitely brought some of the color back, but unfortunately it didn't take the crap off. Oh well, I guess it's time to see about gettin' it repainted.
