The front fenders on a unibody car simply unbolt.  Look for the bolts under the hood, inside the door jams, under the hood, and maybe in the wheel wells.  You'll have to take off the grille and headlight first.

This could help, even if it's for a truck.

Thanks a lot. I used the info and we replaced the damn thing for a little more than 80 bucks (compared to the 450 the auto body guy wanted   )

It isn't painted, is it?

I was unaware that there are front quarter panels.

There are fenders and quarter panels. Not front quarter panels and rear fenders.
