How do you trim your fenders? What do you use to cut and shape them. Is it recomended ? I want to trim my 300ex front fenders to look like this!

Maybe he means how like the fender cuts in at the begining and the shape of the outside of it, instead of the roundness of the stock fenders maybe. Just my observation.:)

i dont think you can make your fenders look like that but if you want to try just use masking tape and tape the lines you want to cut and the take a dremal tool with a cut off wheel to it good luck

these people are retarded....if u wanna trimp ur stocks to look like those...personally ur better off going out and buying the fullbores but if u must do it they have auto body tape that is like spaghetti to lay out flames on cars....get that and get a good view at the plastics u wanna cut urs like and just lay out the shapes with the tape.....then go infront of the tape about and inch with a blow torch quickly and weaken the plastic....then cut out the plastic really ****ty then hit it with a sander.....to make it look good go over ur final cut with a dremel with a sander bit on it..

Wouldn't a jig saw work good to trim the fenders!

yeah you could use one but i would recomend a dremel with the cut off wheel it works faster and is alot easier to work with and when your done you can just but the sanding bit on there and round it all out. just my suggestion good luck
