    Re: Finally, my Accord

    Excellent! Can I ask a bit of advice? Got any tricks/techniques for getting the front fenders off? I attempted to remove mine, undid all the bolts, and it was still stuck on with some sort of adhesive/sealant. I would just pry it up but the metal seems too thin to monkey with it.

    If you're talking about the seam sealer thing they used between the fender and the frame then simply pry them off with a knife or something. Are you sure you've got all the bolts off haha I know I missed the two bolts up front just under the headlamps/behind the grille and going dfsdsdfs wtf??

    Or tap a thin, disposeable paint scraper into the gap.
