Wheel arch liner destroyed

My wife recently drove over some sort of metal/concrete bollard and has managed to literally tear the offside front wheel arch liner off our 2006 focus. The front under shield is also damaged as is the right side cowling that fits next to the radiator.

I have managed to source all these parts from our local scrappy and now have to fit them.

Do I need to remove the front offside road wheel to do this or can it be done from underneath without removing the wheel?

Any advice welcome.

    I've removed my wheel arch liner before. No way I could ever have got it off with the wheel on. You could maybe get undershield done with the wheels on but it's going to be easier with the car jacked up then on axle stands to get under it better.
