taking the fenders off
taking the fenders off
This may sound kinda stupid but i have taken all of the bolts that i can see off and the fender skirt thats inside and the ones underneath but i still can't take the fender off, is there other bolts that i am not aware of.
hope this helps
There are bolts under the hood along the top (easy to see)--there are 2 that are on the bottom of the fender just in front of the door. the tricky ones are two nuts that are holding the fender at the front on two studs that come off of the nose piece. You may have to use an extension and deep socket to get those two nuts off. Be careful not to bend the fender back too much while doing this as you may mess up your nose piece (from experience)
Anybody else? Did I miss anything?

yeah the open the door nut, but theres also one inside the fender closer to the door in the middle. in order to get to it you have to pull back on the front of the fender and stick your arm in through the fender well towards the door under the plastic liner.
i just took mine off the other day. You will need a deep 10mm socket and a 12" extender for a rachet. I can't see it possible to get the thing off without the deep socket and extender... unless you like cutting bolts.

Is far is I understand now you dont have to remove the door to remove a fender. But how is it the other way round? Because some screws of the door seem to be pretty unreachable with the fender still attached?!
