i think raptors look the best when they have cut fenders and the headlights are gone, but there is one minor setback to not having headlights though [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img] .

Yeah cut em off!! When you get some mods done to that bad boy and are wide open on a back road them fenders are gonna throw you all over the place. after you cut them get some truck door trim and put some of that on there to cover the edges. I think it looks great check out my pics.

Hey!!! That truck trim thing is a pretty good idea. Thanks for the thought may have to use it if I cut my new plastics! By the way bike looks GOOD!

I had never seen a Raptor with the rear fenders cut so I wasn't sure if I would like it. I decided to go ahead and ditch the front and rear fenders. I really like the look and it seemed everyone else did cause I had a group of about 10 people asking me questions as soon as I got out of my truck and started unloading my bike. It was like that all weekend. There was almost always someone checking out my bike. Which kinda made me nervous, didn't want to wake up in the morning and have my bike gone.

The truck trim idea I've seen and I think it looks stupid. If you cut them then take a torch to the edge it won't even look like its been cut

Fly, did you look at the pics or even read his post? Its not chrome molding on the edges of the fenders, its black plastic coverring part of the radiator/coil. Take a look.

UBETRUN, nice idea!!![img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-cool.gif[/img]
I wonder what a peice of polished aluminum would look like blocking the veiw???[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]

They will look nice. Trust with the little lights is gonna look sweet. You just give it like a buff on the edges so it can smooth it out.
