Howdy folks,

Had a little boo-boo on the 98 E300TD a little while back, damage only to the rear bumper, 99% contained in the plastic, wrap-around moulding piece (thank goodness)...Found one online for around $100 (much cheaper than the parts counter) Looks like it matches up nicely, now it's at the shop being painted.

My question is, how easy is it to install? I inquired about install at the shop, and their fancy computer quoted 1.6 hours?!? It looks like it will just snap in place (once I pry the old one off...what's left of it.) Or is there something I'm missing? 1.6 hours sounds like a complete bumper removal, or an over-exaggerated estimate to charge more $$.

Any advice? Thanks for your time!!
