Hey, im trying to get the front fender off and i cant get it. I think i have all of the screws but it wont really move at all. Do i have to take off the splash shield to get at any bolts? thanks.

Remove 2 bolts between the fender and bumper, 4 along the top, open the door and there's one towards the top between the door and body, 1 you remove from inside the engine bay beside the turn signal bulb, 2 on the lower front side of the fender (remove sideskirt end cap if you have them), 2 under the very bottom and 3 right under the fender lip holding on the splash gaurd.

You still have remove your tire though, and you can keep the splashshield attached to your car. let it hang there while you take the fender. I have do this to mine its lil' bent from a minor fender bender with old lady. When this winter breaks I'm replcing it and installing my Vis hood. Just be careful when you remove the top 10mm bolts of your fender they will snap the heads if they where over torqued/rusted. This happend to me so I know. My bad if this is an old thread.
