The outer panel is spot welded to the inner fenderwell. You need to drill out the spot welds and separate the panels so the new panel can be spot welded back on.

You should be able to buy those also or if it's not too bad make your own patch panel for those. Maybe even cut a piece that is close enough from a junkyard vehicle.
