PM mr_305, he can hook you up. then you can have the classic "305 cut" I:I

yb200 also has the 305 cut and can help you out.

i used a sanding block and a dremel.. i kinda just went at it.. i didnt do much planning i just started cutting. yb has more details about my cuts then i do. lol
just find a style you like and cut them.. use the block for straight lines. and dremel the rest i used the sanding bit on the dremel.. post some pics when your done..

mr305 & yb200 definitely got it down for doing a fine job but here's a crude option. I bought one of these purple scotch pads that fits my side grinder for stripping paint and it didn't work very well so I tried it for shaping fenders and it worked great for me. Didn't load up & didn't melt the plastic like sandpaper sometimes does. I taped off rough lines, trimmed with tin snips & shaped it with the purple pad. You can polish it up with something fine if ya like. Made the shaping part quick & easy.

A jig saw, sander and a heat gun work great for me.

I cut mine on a band saw with a fine tooth blade, then sanded smooth and straight. Just make sure in your prep you get your lines perfect on both fenders

masking tape jigsaw with a fine teeth blade works wonders
