removing fender flares
in my search i found everything from removing door panels to removing carpet stains, but don't see anything about removing fender flares...
any ideas?
i took out the long bolt/screws, but it's still completely stuck, and i simply don't see anything else to take out (besides a plastic pop-out thingy in the bottom, but that's not holding the whole thing tight to the fender)
thanks

sorry guys, i thought my sig would show that. i just got a 2000 EB.
just the standard fender trim (and i'm assuming it's painted and normal looking under their).
all i can see are four screw/boltsk, but there is objviously something else holding it on.

- thanks for the replies guys -
are you sure the pain't wont match? i've pushed the flares down a bit (they do budge a little) and for the few mms i can move them the paint is the same color underneath (as the rest of the truck, not the flares themselves)....but i haven't been able to look too far.
are there really holes in the fender itself? that sucks. nobody out there has actually pulled them off of a 1st gen expy?
as you can tell i'd really like to get them off (but not if the truck'll look like ***** afterwards...

The paint will be the same paint that the rest of the truck is, but the rest may be faded slightly. Sorry to say, yes, the fenders will be full of holes and look like s*** with them off. I have personally removed a set at the junkyard in order to install them on my 99.
