its held on by clips at the front and rear fenders. 10mm bolts on the underside of the skirt. and pop rivets between the skirt and frame.

^ Exactly....should take less than 5 minutes per side.

Don't be afraid of pulling hard once the screws underneath and fender rivets are removed....the skirts will then "pop" off.

You can pull it pretty hard, but make sure not to angle it too much when you pull or you risk damaging it.

Go here, perhaps this will help. If it does, give much props to ANYONE2U. He did the original write-up.
