Can anybody help me on trimming fender flares on a zr2? ive only seen guys on here post pics on their non zr2s. I have seen it done on some zr2s and would like to know how you did it.

when i trimmed mine i used an angle grinder, i figured it was smoother than a sawzall.
just measure and tape it off then cut. not to bad to do....just measure TWICE!!

i trimmed the valance with a utility blade, the flare portion on the bumper was done with an angle grinder, i know, its plastic....but it gave it a nice rounded edge when i trimmed it up and shaped it a little.
