As Martureo said you need a ratchet gear wrench. Not the flat cheaper type,
must be the Mastercraft 13mm
reverse gear wrench with the angled head. Hinge must not be attached to hood.
Glue the bolt head into the socket. Use a large screwdriver etc to get it started and provide friction. Then it's a piece of cake. Don't even think about taking off the fender

.
That 13mm gear wrench will become the most useful tool in your kit!
