Re: Help removing fenders

letss seeee...

id start with removing the front bumper, there are clips and bolts in the top that mounts it and the headlight bar to the core suport, under the front there are clips that attatch the valance to the core, then bolts along the bumper where it meets the fenders, unplug all your lights, basically comes right off

remove the hood, remove bolts along the top of the fenders, look in front of the front wheels under the car there may be a bracket bolted to the bottom of the fender, remove it, there is 1-2 bolts at the bottom of the fender behind the front wheels, (if you have side skirts they must come off) and unplug the marker lights and they are off, not to big of a deal, looking at the car its like a puzzle but easy to figure out, grab your tools and start with the side skirts or bumper, altho i didnt take pictures when i had mine all apart.

Thanks for the tips. I've almost got them off at this point.

Re: Help removing fenders

2 bolts under fender behind wheel, 2 screws under the rocker emblem, 5 nuts on the front of the fender mounting to the bumper cover, 3 nuts on the bracket that mounts chin spoiler( studs often break, be careful, just need them loose enough to slide out spoiler), 1 bolt for the brace to the frame under front of fender, 1 push pin on chin spoiler. Then all the bolts on top of fender. Pretty sure that's all of them. you don't need to take off the nose.
