How do you remove the fenders?

Haven’t found anything when trying to look it up as far as I can see it’s just the bolt that u have access to when you pop the hood on top there’s one on the side that is viable with the door open and then the push pins on the splash shield around the tire is there any other bolts that I’m missing that anyone knows of before I go to remove it?

7 bolts total, bumper side has 1 bolt you take out and then it unclips from the fender. There is 3 bolts there, two are for the plastic piece that the bumper clips to. One is to secure the bumper to the fender.

once you get the bumper cover off, it will make much more sense...

Number 2 will be hardest.

You can cheat by just dropping the bumper on one side and bending the shield back to access the #2 bolt. The rocker bolts are often rusty.

Also tape off the door edge and get tape under the fender at the A pillar keep from scratching it.
