The hardest part with cutting your fenders is deciding just how much to remove...
Take a look at as many different pics as you can, they can be found all over the place.
I did a set the other day and it was a lot easier than you'd think.

Pic 1: Masking. Take your time to get both sides even. I called in an innocent bystander to offer an opinion...

give Quad-tech a call they will hook you up. the hoods were in high demand, so you might have to wait for one to be made. ''eurogod''right on the money, find the best shape or make one of your own use a magic marker draw it out (alcahol will clean the marker off if you don't like it) as soon as you have a design you like , tape the lines,jig saw it ; then sand the edges,presto your done!

Pic2: The cut. Using a Dremel, I cut through the electrical tape rather than along the edge. This gave me enough 'spare' plastic to file away by hand.

i really like how that looks eurogod,do you think you could get me a pic of the backside of the front fenders? one where the tape was, and one that you cut. or if you dont have one w/the tape, just where you cut it from the back?, thanks mike
