Everyone should own a Haynes manual if they want to work on their car. That being said I cant help you specifically, but you'll have to take off the wheel well covers. start from the bottom. There are bolts that conect the fender to the bumper inside the wheel well. There is probably some bolts that connect the fender to inside the door. Then there are bolts that are on top. Mark the old fender so that you have a point of reference for the new one.

Hope you got an OEM bumper, the aftermarket ones usually dont fit right. That should do it. Good luck. I dont have my Haynes manual with me so I cant give you any more advice.

I've been reading thru the manual a bit, the troubleshooting section is excellant... says what to check if idle is erratic, or car is low on power, or pulls left etc... well worth the $20

There are bolts up top, along the side by the door, down on the rocker, along the edge by the bumper, holding the fender to the bumper, behind the side marker light there's a few and the fender liner has to be disconnected from the fender.

Look around, it's not that hard to find them all.

Best thing is to take your time and look. I mean most people get in a rush but if you stop and look at things there its always more simple then you thought also quit being a cheap **** and by a manual.
