My paint is good but my front fender beads each have dents and need to be
replaced.

My questions--if I undo the bolts along the bottom behind the wheel and
below the headlight, will the bottom of the fender swing out enough to reach
the rear tabs so I can unfold them or install new ones?

Or do I have to loosen the top bolts, too?

Can I just carefully grab the beading with channel locks and pull it out
from the top? Then insert the new beading tabs into the same places as the
previous tabs, folding the tabs from the bottom by pushing with a stick?
