Quick question on bumper removal

I have a complete set of tools, just curious on how long it takes to pull a bumper off our cars?

well, you remove the grill, remove 2 or 4 bolts in that area, peel back the fender wells, 2 bolts on each side. and 2 or 4 more under the bottom tray.

i'm guessing 30 mins to an hour depending on 1 person to help and the number of beers consumed.
