With wrinkles, you may not have much luck ending up with a nice looking bumper.
There are used bumpers from cars that have been garaged:

there is stuff called rubber bumper paint.
ask at a real parts store (like NAPA) not the chains that hire people that don't know a transmission mount from a steering arm.
Or look at Wal-mart. They have it as well, for pretty cheap. (that's what I would do)

I have done 2 sets using Tom's http://www.mgexp.com/article/rb-repair.html maybe not like new, but almost...and some had some pretty bad dings & tearers. Look at the 2 LE's on my profile. Easily added $500+ to asking price when sold. I couldn't get the "waves" out of the one, no mater how hard I tried,
