seriously though, just get under it and start taking the bolts and/or plastic rivets out.
there might be a couple bolts hidden underneath the inner fender as well.

Just look where the seams are. That's where you'll find w/e the attatching pieces are and remove them. Some will be in tricky places so look carefully.
