replacing a fender
i'm gonna be replacing a fender on my car soon and i was wondering if anyone had any suggestions regarding this process. do i have to take the bumper off (i assume that i do).
any warnings, cautions, or suggestions?

its really easy, just whip out your handy 10mm socket and you're good to go. dont forget to open the door and get the one hiding at the top. you shouldnt have to remove the bumper, it should slide out of a little bracket on the bumper. and watch out for the blinker wire dont just rip it on out. if you have to reuse the litle rubbery bucket for it, just squeeze it together and jam it on through, thats what i did. have fun seeing your car naked too.

there are 2 on the bottom by the door ( usally covered in roadgrim) and i think 3 in the engine bay and 1 under the headlight cover thingy. * definitly the toughest one to get off. and the screw the the air dam conect too.:p

Theres one I needed a foot long extension to get to, but that may be because my fender was smashed to hell. If you had X-ray vision, you'd see it behind the RX-7 side logo. Gotta take off the wheel well liner and it's in there, way back.
