Pro tips: Fender Flare Removal

Picking up a set of painted fender flares (black - $200) this weekend. Looking for any pro tips on purchase/inspection/install. Thanks!

- Anything to look out for on the flares? (scratches/dents/broken clips?) Any deal breakers?

- Should I purchase anything prior to install? (extra metal clips, plastic rivets, etc?) Any odd tools?

- How many beer job is this?

- Does this sound right? Front flares, remove 10MM bolts, pull off flare/liner, attach liner to new flare, reinstall. Rear flares, remove plastic rivets, pull off flare, reattach plastic rivets to new flare, reinstall?

Thanks!

I bought a pack of them on Amazon for far less than the dealer chargers. Same ones in jadmt's link, I think I used half of them swapping from my painted wheel flares to textured plastic ones (to take all the off-roading scratches from forest trail riding).
