As mentioned, torx bits are your friend. Beyond that, they really are easy to remove and install. If something feels stuck, it probably is, take your time.
Pull the headlight surrounds, the grill, and then then headlights are marker/turn signals. Then you can remove the header panel, the bumper (this can be done before), and work from there back depending on what you need. If all is in good shape, you should have the entire thing done in about an hour.
Currently there are no 97+ at the upap down here. 96 is the highest year currently

Ya gotta separate the inner fender liners from the fenders. They're held together by the 10mm nuts on the studs for the flare brackets. When looking at the flares, right at the top/middle you'll find one of these 10mm nuts on a stud. Remove the nut, but you'll probably find a metal spring washer you'll need to pry off to get the fender liner off. Once the fender liner is off, you'll see a metal bracket also attached to that same stud that goes over to the unibody/inner fender structure. Bend that away off the stud and the rest of the fender removal is simply removing torx head screws.
