i used a hacksaw blade specifically for plastic,,,,,,it gives a real fine cut with little clean up to do......
......i also have a dremel.......but you can mess up real quick with those cutting drill bits:eek:

jig saw with a fine tooth blade
electrical tape works great to mark the line you are wanting to cut

First off Dont use a SAWZAW!!!!!!!

hacksaw seems slow to me..

i used a makita angle grinder with a diamond blade on it. it worked exelent!! took about 3 minutes to do..

Tip: mark the fenders with a marker first!!!

what are the pro's and con's to shaving your fron fendors, other than looks.

Pro's well i like the looks better,,,,,,,,,,,,,,


one con i can think of right off is the lack of protectionfrom flying debris..........turn the front tires going into a corner and you will get a shower of mud, or tacky dirt,,,,,,,,,or even a rock.

Happens to me all the time...........but i like the looks enough to put up with it,,,,,,,,,and if i would wear my helmet all the time it wouldnt get in my eyes:o :eek: :confused2
