Remove all trims, all seals... Get an idea for how many window trim clips you will need to replace..  Remove bumpers, remove grill. If a black grill you can spray it with a rattle can of satin black..

With bumpers removed assess the fillers condition..

If you do allot of the prepping, stripping, taping, general disassembly it should save you quite a bit labor cost for when you send it out to paint..
