there are two screws in the top of the wheel well, the clips are all around, just keep removing all the clips you see to pull off the liner, if i could see the pic, then i would circle it for u

i installed them myself...its very very easy to install..first i thought it would be alot of thingy needed to do..but took me 30mins for the first side and 15min for the 2nd...most the time is spended on taking off the heavy wheels..
i just took off all clips screws on the front wheel weel and just pull down the front wheel well hard,cause the back wheel well is holding it from under.
when i did this install i check,try to learn how to get into the fog lights or hids..but didn't really figure it out...have no idea..i'm going to change the fog and hids next, can someone PM me the steps how to change the fog lights and change the hid lights? thx!

Yeah, you can just turn your wheel all the way towards the "inside" of the car, depending on which side you are changing.

The clips are circled in red. Screw is circled in yellow.

the liner is made out of plastic so its pretty durable, you can pull it all sorts of directions w/out breaking it, then all you have to do when you finish is to put it back in place so all of the clips can go in

You only need to undo that one screw. It also helps if you do this after you drive the car. The engine heat causes the plastic to be more pliable.
