I'm assuming you mean your fender. Easiest thing to do is buy the new one and look where the holes are for bolts and find them on the old one. Tools used would most likely be all 10mm sockets and a Philip's head screwdriver.
Remove wheel and the fender liner
Then behind the door jam on top there is one
2 or 3 under the hood
I believe 2 on the bottom (one under the side skirt, the other behind the rocker panel) gonna have to remove the skirt to get to it
SKIRT REMOVAL: there are 2 screws (or maybe one) screw(s) holding the skirt on from front and I believe 4 on the doorstep. You might be able to get away with just removing the ones on the front door which will give you enough space to remove the bolt underneath for the fender.
Now that those are gone, look deep inside behind the headlight (just under the low beam), there are 2 screws holding the bumper to the fender. Those are a PAIN to get out, need about a 2ft extension (possibly 8mm).
Now where the fender meets the bumper on the side (at the opening of the tire well) you'll see another bolt. Remove that and you're done.
Reverse process and its off.
Yes, VERY bad write up with no pics Again, once you get the new fender, you'll see where the bolts go and that's a good map to find which need to be removed.
