89 Bronco removing fenders

I have a big dent in my 89 passenger side front fender. I have looked at how to remove it, but I can't seem to even find the bolts that hold it on. Is this a hard job? Can anybody give me any advice on the steps to removing the fender?

Also, are the non OEM replacement fenders on the broncograveyard worth buying? do they fit as good as origionals?

Thanks

No its not a hard job. There is one bolt on the front door jamb near the top, one at the bottom rear of the fender, you have to remove all the screws holding the inner fender to the fender, and you have to find the bolts on the radiator support. You also have to remove the hood hinge (it will be easier to have a friend help and just remove the hood completely since you do not have experience with this) You also have to remove the battery tray and any other equipment on the fender.

I have not personally used any fenders from there, but I havent really heard anything bad about them. Check with local body shop supply stores or dealers, I think Keystone Automotive makes them as well. I have not had many problems with there stuff. Infact some stuff is better than OEM.
