Default Front fender replacement

Got into a little fender bender(******* snow) and now must replace hood and fender. Hood i think is easy, however i am not too confident about the fender. Its the front right fender on a 93 H/b Cx, btw. Anyone know the best way to take off the old and put on the new one???

replaceing the fender is easy is, I believe 8 10mm bolts... the hard part is putting it back on.. You have to install it back in the same spot or it will hit when you open the door.. The best way is put it on and adjust from the top down. It will only take 15-20 of playing with it to get it perfect.. just pay attention to the gaps on the other side of the car for reference..

I di dit this weekend. The hood takes all of 2 minutes to swap out (if you have someone help you)and the fenders are pretty straight forward as long as there's no radiator support damage(mine did ). If you run into trouble(which I doubt), just post it on here or IM me.

Actually, just out in ALL the bolts(doesnt matter wher you start) and slowly tighten each bolt so you can move it around. Once its on straight you can go around and tighten all the bolts completely. i know its vague, but you get the picture.
