Default race cut fenders

Im going to be cutting my fenders. I want the look of the race cut. I heard their is a special way to make the edges of the cut fenders to look shinny. It makes them look like they came that way. Does anybody know how too?

I cut mine with a Dremel, then used Snowmobile winshield edging (chrome) and put that where I cut. Looks good.

I did mine a couple weeks ago. I just cut it with a hack saw, then used a corse file to grind it done. After that I ran a pocket knife along it sideways. It came out really good and looks bada$$.

Careful with the heat, most of the time it causes the edges of the fenders to warp. Just sand them down starting with a course sand paper like 300, then 400, 600 and so on. They will come out shiny.
