Default Upper Engine Cowl Removal Questions

I'm thinking of removing the 2 upper engine cowls to paint them. Has anyone done this; and if so how much trouble is it removing them? It looks like they just unscrew & pull out. The passenger side cowl looks like it will pull right out without any problem or interference from the windshield wiper. However it looks like the driver's side cowl will have to lift over the driver's side windshield wiper. If so, do you only have to remove the wiper blade part where it clips onto the wiper arm? Or do you have to remove the whole wiper arm where it attaches into the cowl?

I checked PTDoItYourself.net, but I couldn't find any info on removing the driver's side cowl.

Thanks, John
