cutting my fenders here would have to be about the stupidist thing i could do, i already get covered in crap, cant imagine having less fender ::)
98% of north americans that hit the ditch say "oh shit", the other 2% are from saskatchewan and say "hold my beer and watch this"

Rough Cuts are done, I got a feather in my ass and decided to do them. Crappy lookin' now, but gonna grab a dremel from work tomorow and smooth em out. One thing though. To those who did cut there front fender, did you cut the around where the plastic mounted to the bracket and took the bracket completely off or save it? Im in a delima there.. ???

they look pretty good.   i must say that it is weird seeing race cut fenders with knobbies and nerfs for some reason..  but i like it..

are you gonna do anything to the rears. I have thought about it but am unsure. I would like to just trip it up some but the warning labled on the front fender will limit the trimming. You have to go all out or nothing really. Probably look stupid to have half of a warning label on there. I want to see one that still has the heel guards and nerfs but fenders cut.

Nothing with the years yet, I don't know if I want to do anything that drastic. I have an old set of rears, I might cut them and put them on and see what I think. If I do want me to take a picture that way you can see the rears cut and nerfs?

What did you use to smooth out your cuts?

Yamahauler

Well there still not all the way smooth but I used a pair of scissors on my rough cuts lol. Then used a jigsaw to get the closer cuts and a detail sander to smooth down and take the edges off.
