on some quads they look really good, if they are for like racing and ****. But unfortunatley not on yours. I learned my lesson anyway. I cut the fenders off myself on my 250ex. It looks horribles, so im gonna get all new plastics from maier.

it aint gonna be a total cut just an aerodynamic trim

im gonna use an angle grinder

[Macadoo355]

Jig saw with a metal cutting bit works very well

[skragg]

there is an awesum thread in the how to section that fully explains the process

[allstock]

cutting wheel... then sand it... the run over the edges with a lighter to burn off all the plastic shavings and you got yourself a set of cut fenders

[Fenix169motox]

I used a sawzall with a wood blade, along with precise lines lol, but yeah, angle grinder, well sander, to clean it up, and you can get a plastic trimming tool, its like a squigally blade and works awesome, i've cut fenders on like 4 quads now and they all like em.

I just cut mine yesterday. I bought a heavy duty utility knife. I just marked where I wanted to cut with tape and a marker and just slowly cut thru it with the knife. It has a nice smooth cut and no shavings to clean up. Then I just sanded the edges a little so they wouldn't be sharp. Took me about 20 minutes. I'm proud of myself. They came out great.
