u mean to get the inner arch out?
if so there is one bolt u need to undo, then u can just rip it out. the things that hold the lining on are like plastic rivets, very easy to break, not really needed.
to remove the arch u dont need all the arch lining out just enough to get your hand in to reach the bolt.

i also wanna know how the fuck to do this. was considering getting a stanley knife and cutting a little flap it the arch where the bolt is them duct taping it back after. Is there one or two bolts under the arch liner?

If you mean the screw that goes through the bumper and end of arch to hold them both tight against the body I used a small hand sized torque wrench with adaptors for some length to stick into the hole, its a shitty plastic bolt which will get mangled the longer you bodge at screwing it out!!!
It is a Beatch!

no I think he means the two on the top or the arches, theres two bolts hidden holding the front arch in place, they seem to be hidden under the plastic wheel arch.
