there is a bracket back near the doorjam that sticks out of the body, and a 10mm nut holds the fender to it. remove the plastic wheel well, put a few extensions together, and you can reach it that way.

you can get to the next bold by reaching underneath the valance. you are lacking one 10mm bold that holds the fender to the valance to the fender.
