Default taking off 5th gen fender

I searched and looked in the helms but didnt find much help on taking off the passenger side front fender. I heard there are sites with pictures that show how to take off the fender. The reason is my fender somehow got bent while it was in the garage, not sure if it was the temp change or what but it sticks out now and looks bad. So any help will be appreiated it, thanks.

Before following these steps, have you tried to just press on it a little?


1) You'll need to pop to hood and you'll see (3) 10mm bolts
2) Take your bumper off, and you'll see (2) 10mm bolts by the headlight that need to be taken out
3) Open your door and you'll see (1) 10mm bolt in the door jam that needs to be taken out
4) Take your side skirt off and you'll see (1) 10mm bolt that is holding the bottom part of your fender that needs to be taken out

That should be all the bolts that need to be taken out and your fender should come off
