I objected that there was no bumper removal involved, and piping was the same, the mechanic told me even if proceeding from below the fan was in the way and he had to move it, hence the 2hrs, and that it "Always seems simple on paper, but more complicated when doing the job".
Do they know what they're doing or is it a ripoff ?
Thx :-)

The fan doesn't have to be removed. Not entirely against the 2 hours of labor but it should really only take an hour.
Honestly, it's pretty simple. Remove the lower shield. 2 clips on the stock FMIC to unscrew it. 2 Couplers. Reinstall the new FMIC. Reinstall lower shield.
