wondering how to take out the fender liner.

I don't know how to remove it (and forgive me if this it OT)... but does anyone know why the fender liner is a carpet-like material? I find that strange and often wondered what the purpose is (e.g. sound insulation from road noise?). I would think some smooth plastic-type material would be easier to wash and would not trap debris and moisture.

The pin is like a flat ended plastic nail with a wide head. Pull this out. Then, wiggle out the socket that the pin was in. That will free up the liner.
