mdhc500 Posted July 7, 2008 Report Share Posted July 7, 2008 Thanks for the quick response... Did you use a jigsaw or sawsall? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trav-99 Posted July 7, 2008 Report Share Posted July 7, 2008 I like the look of full fenders. If you have to cut them just use a chain saw, It all looks the same. i agree, chainsaw them! hahahahahahahhaha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Black&Red87 Posted July 7, 2008 Report Share Posted July 7, 2008 Ive found that a dremel with a cut off wheel works quite well also. A sawzall or jig saw will bounce the plastic too much and leave alot of clean up on the fenders. JMO Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Banshee_Bandit Posted July 8, 2008 Report Share Posted July 8, 2008 I was quit pissed by the looks of them aero killer fenders so just cut them off with a jigsaw and then cut away the uneven rests of the jigsaw massacre away with a sharp knife... Just striped over in a straight line and worked fine for me...perfetto so don`t make a drama out of the whole story lads its just plastics Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
