Make the outline with thin tape first then use a small cutting wheel

 

[warriorrider01]

draw on one fender with a marker, then cut it off, then make a cardboard template and trace it to the other side

I used a jigsaw, you can follow the lines of the fenders or use masking tape, tape your lines on each side and compare them to make sure they are even. If they are cut them.

i first used a hacksaw,worked so/so, finished with a bench grinder.
it would have saved alot of time to use the grinder start to finish.
the important part is to be patient, & mark your cutting line.
i noticed i was rushing with the hacksaw,it got out of line a few times because i was impatient & tried to too much to fast.

I used a dremel with a cut off wheel and sand paper to do mine

i used a sawzall w/ metal blade (free hand) then fine sandpaper to smooth it out

 

[warriorrider01]

heat on the edge will make it look nice! completely smooth.

this works best after sanding

I did one side 1st, used tape to get the look i wanted, cut it and make a template to duplicate on the other side. Also use sand paper to make the edges smooth
