I did it all by my lonesome, cause my son ditched me (typical 13 year old), to go hang with his friend. It took me about 4 1/2 hours with all the sanding. After I cut the fenders, I used a palm sander with 50 grit to shape the fenders a little more. Let me know what you think!

When you said you went a little crazy, I didn't expect that lol.

I think you went with the G-string version of the Reds fender trim! lol I like em! looks really aggressive!

Glad you like them that is the most important thing!

Red


lol you should put that in your signature, Reds Fender trim (G-string version) I love it!!!!

As far as smoothing the edges can you not do it just like you would when cutting atv plastics? We have always used a torch (gently of course) and the cuts always look like factory cuts when we are done. Wonder if it would make a difference beings as these fenders are textured? Sorry if someone already suggested this.

Great idea! I'm planning on using a sander and file. Then I'll try the torch thing.
