Since you are having to take it off ask the shop that is painting it if they will paint the front bumper off the car, the seam is so tight that it just doesn't look right painted together. You may also consider the rear bumper also if they are painting the whole car.

take the bolts off the top of the fender including the ones holding the hood hinge. 1 bolt at the bottom behind the wheel.

few bolts between the bumper cover and fender, these are hard to get to, on the wrecked fender I would just cut the fender to save time if you have stuff to cut the metal.

good fender just get in through the wheel well to the bolts on the bumper cover. Then lets see bolts under the hood on the front of the bumper, take all the plastic off the botom of the bumper... umm have I forgot anything probably.

This should help you. http://www.3gc.net/articles/exterior/fenders.shtml
I've done it a few times without removing the hood but it's the correct way. If you have any more questions ask.
