Replacing wheel arch liner

Mine is split from the bottom right up to the middle top of the wheel arch and catching on the wheel, rear drivers side, I have a replacement. Is it easy enough to swap out?
Jack up car, wheel off, undo various fixings, replace and repeat?
I am a long way from being a mechanic so please be gentle.

According to the manual (and looking at my car) If it is the front wheel it looks like you remove the wheel and remove the fasteners. Looks like there are 8 of them. They are plastic Torx T30 screws. Thats all the details the manual gives.
