Default What kind of plastic is our bumpers?

Anyone know what kind of plastic our bumpers are made of? I'm asking because I curbed the front corner of my bumper and I want to try and repair/repaint it myself. I need to use fillers to fill the gouges. The type of filler you use to repair the bumper depends on the plastic type. I'm told the bumpers should be stamped with PP (polypropylene), PPO (polyphenylene oxide), TPE (thermoplastic elastomer), PUR (polyurethane plastic rigid) or TPUR (thermoplastic polyurethane elastomer). I'm too lazy to remove my bumper and check. Just hoping someone would know by experience. Thanks!
