i use a dremel with a round cutting tool not a disk, if you cut the fenders your'e gonna eat a lot of dirt trust me..

yea thats what i thought too but mine is a little wider. But i think it looks cool anyways. where do you cut them or do you use a pattern of some sort. I there a reason to cut your fenders besides the look.
thanks for the help.

I used electical tape,,,made lines were I wanted to cut,,and used a utility knife,,probably not as fast as usin a dremel but I don't own a dremel. By usin the tape you can pull it off and put it back on until both sides look like the outline is equal..

and benefits of cutting fenders,,,theres a few but if you dont' race MX don't do it,,you won't like the outcome..
