I found out.

There is one screw under the front near tire holding to the body, then if you open the doors there are plastic rivet screws that need to be removed.

I would get a hard folder plastic and insert it between the fender and the fender arches then finish it up. Removing them is easy, the hard part is getting them back on with proper adhesive. It wont be the same.
The lower plastic is held by multiple fasteners along the bottom part of the door. They dont get bad as the fender flares. Just use armourall Restore.

I dont know where to find them. I steal it from my daughters school supply. LOL! Its just a hard thin durable rectangular plastic that wont bend if you insert it between the fender and the flare.

As for removing the glue left by the wheel arches, I had much better luck with Goo Gone and WD40 than I did with the 3M Eraser Wheel.

All the 3M Wheel did was smear the remaining glue all over...…… Would NOT recommend wasting the money for one.

yeah i just used, very carefully, a razor blade on the plastic pieces for residue and for the body i plan to use lemon essential oil, which does really well to get rid of any gunk.

I saw some of ur upgrade albums and really dig it. makes me excited to plan out what all i want to do on mine
