Default Drivers side front quarter panel removal

Hello

I'm trying to remove my driver's side front quarter panel. I've gotten all of the bolts off from the front right to the hood. The seem to be two more that remain just behind the wheel well. The side skirt is in the way and I can't get to these. I'm also not having any luck taking off the side skirt. Could someone help out and explain how to take the side skirt off? I've gotten some of the holders off underneath the car but there's a piece right before the driver's side door that is keeping the skirt intact horizontally.

Thanks for you help.

After removing the Screw Clips from the bottom of the Side Skirt, make sure to remove the Screws that attach it to the Inner Fender Lining. When these Screws are all removed, slide your Side Skirt toward the Front of the car.

To put it back on, take the white Clips and insert them back into the Side Skirt. This makes it easier to snap it back in, as opposed to trying to align the all 7 holes perfectly.

Hope this helps,

I have to remove my front fender to fix a dent. Does the bumper need to be removed in this process?
