yeah they bolt up with a dozen or more 10mm hex head bolts, nothing fancy or hard about removing them, the fender liner has to come out first, thats held on by a dozen phillips head screws.

Don't forget that the front bumper cover has to come off also to get at the three bolts holding the fender on from the front.

What's that? How hard is it to get the front bumper cover (mid quarter panel?!?) off? Just more 10 mm bolts...and about four of the long extensions to get the three nuts that come in from the back (in front of the tire).
This is a good test to see how handy you are. If you can't do this, sell your 7 IMMEDIATELY and buy a Honda.

You might want to mark the current position of the fender bolts in the holes on the fender. The holes are slotted to allow for adjustment, and I don't know about you, but I really hate trying to align the hood and fenders and bumper.
