Not sure why the OP's guy took a week for just the grill.

I paid $200 to paint the grill with multiple coats including clear coat.
Mercedes charged me $253 to install and put illuminated star in.
they did not remove grill....only chrome pieces, which snap in. Actually watched tech do it....there is an access panel under hood that had to be removed to get access, but whole think took less then 1 hour.
My bumper did not have to be removed.

Could be different models. Mine was a single removable piece....item 40 in the 2nd picture.
I know I had a issues when the car first arrived. A back piece was damaged in shipping. Mercedes originally said back bumper had to be removed - 3 days, 2 techs due to all the sensors.
I dropped off car and they called me in 30 min. A senior tech knew how to install without removing bumper.
You might challenge it.

But tbh, I have no idea... I just dropped it off... then picked it up. I didn't watch them do anything.
