Well....when hit a small animal on the highway, and the oil cooler was hit, the dealer told me
that it'd be 4 hours to remove/reinstall the bumper. I went elsewhere.
I have personally removed the bumper with a friend and a set of ramps in about 20 minuntes.
So, I would venture to say that the dealer should be able to remove it in 15 minutes.

Very easy to do yourself (20 min.) if you invested 2 hours prior figuring it out.
I use a 2 foot ratchet extension (8mm) that is pretty narrow that fits in the gap between the fender and the bumper (there's a groove for a tool like this). I slide it all the way back so I have leverage and just pull. It's hard to explain but the process is easy once you spilled your initial blood and sweat.
