I would consider using acetone. But, I'm not a paint expert by any stretch of the imagination.

That might attack the PVC fenders, I would try denatured alcohal.

Don't use acetone it's a solvent-cement for most plastics, denatured alcohal, as mentioned, or plain old mineral spirits will work fine.

Scuff them with a green scotch brite and then wipe them off with rubbing alcohol.
