Man that sucks, Luna. Here's a few things I found. Looks like just about anything you use to clean up the paint splatter on your PW paint will require polishing afterwards.

1. Enamel Reducer soaking just the corner of a microfiber towel

2. With your finger and the towel test an inconspicuous spot that has the paint splatter

3. Do not let the enamel reducer dry, wipe it with a clean microfiber

4. If this removes the splattered paint continue until it's all been removed.

5. Polish all the areas and apply a LSP

DO NOT USE LACQUER THINNER

Enamel reducer is safe on catalyst cured clear coatings but always do a test spot.
You can buy quarts of enamel reducer at your local auto body supply.
For the tire, you won't have to worry as much. I saw a number of posts referring to a product you can find at Lowe's called Motsenbocker's Lift Off Spray Paint Graffiti. This would probably work on the fender liner as well. Of course, with any new product, I would test it in an inconspicuous location first.
