hi is there a way to cut fiberglass side skirts...i don't like the way the sideskirts i just bought have that extra bit at the top that goes up the sides of the car around the door very much. Just wondering if I could maybe cut that off with some kind of saw (?) or alot of sandpaper. thanks, eric

i guess you can. just get a dremel tool mark a line where you want to cut it and when your done sand the edge smooth and straight so it won't look all bumpy and retarded looking.

thanks. its just that this front bumper looks soooo good but has these ugly little splitters molded into the bumper that piss me off.

You can use a hack saw, or just a hack saw blade just be careful not to cut your hand if you use the blade. Tape it up with some tape of rap a cloth around it

wear gloves too, fiberglass shavings are a be-yatch to get out of your hands and it hurts like hell
