I just bought a 97 E320 for a great deal with some front right damage. I will need to replace the hood, fender, headlight assembly, probably radiator and maybe bumper cover. I have removed the fender, and what I call the inner fender, or what the fender actually bolts to, is crunched up against the tire. I first need to pull that away from the tire, so I can move the car around easier, but first attempts at this have failed. Any ideas on how to pull this away? Also, what is this section called? I am having trouble finding any info online anywhere. See picture for exact location, it isn't my car but shows the part I am talking about.
