Has anyone ever taken the fenders off their FC

I'm trying to take my fenders and bumper off of my FC. I have all the bolts removed but I can't figure out how to get the ones between the bumper and fender. There doesn't seem to be any good way to get at them. Any ideas from the masses?

You need to remove the fender liners. Youll be able to get at the bolts then.

It wasnt really that difficult for me. When I got my car, the fender on the passenger side was messed up. I pulled it off in 3 hours and put the new one on in 2 hours. 5 hour job, the bumper did not have to come off though. Theres a nice walkthrough on removing the front bumper in the workshop manual.
