okay I understand now...what I cannot is why folks do it and then trail ride??? mud all over the place. Is it a vision thing? Like being able to see not appearance....
I put "bark busters on my 400ex and took off the sheilds...terrifing not being able to see your outside edge of front tires going thru trees; they created a blind spot.

Use a dry erase felt tip pen to draw on your fenders where you want to cut them. Follow this line with a rotozip if you have one. Then smooth edges with fine sandpaper. If you don't have a rotozip, you can cut them with a carpenters utility knife. With the dry erase felt tip pen you can play around with where you want to cut your fenders and just wipe off the marks. Good luck.
