Default Front Fender removal
I had a 4x4 back into to me today, damaged the left fender and both headlight doors. How hard is it to remove the fender. Can the front stay inplace?

It's been a while since I've removed my front fender, but I'm pretty sure the front has to come off. It's not hard to remove the front fascia.
