Did you sand the edges at all?

I only needed to sand a couple small areas, some light filing at the corners I used a fine tooth blade it cut the plastic pretty smooth, I plan on fine sanding a lil more to make the edge shine

Right on. I want to take the edge trim off my fenders but dread the sanding involved.

You can use a belt sander with heavy paper holding it sideways with both hands evenly & steady it will level everything but you should have experience with that tool you could mess it up too, I tested it on scrap plastic first, if anybody in the Bay Area wants fenders done come on over we'll have a fender cutting party! Crawler kitty's next!

I normally go camping on a regular basis to Santa Barbara, but I want to find a spot just below the snow line outside of Mammoth.

Yay! Sooooooo....does that mean my rear bumper is on it's way soon? JK! On that topic just wondering has anyone cut their rear fenders with the stock rear bumper still on? Thinking it would look silly since the bumper will extend past the cut portion. If it will work and looks okay I'm going to be first in line and any pics would be appreciated.

Did my fenders a couple of weeks ago with some great tips from Paisano and Rox-n-Mud, appreciate everyone's help.
One of the best tools and tips was one from Rox-n-Mud. He suggested I use a sheet rock rasp after making the initial cuts with a jigsaw to lightly take down any high spots. Practiced on some of the cut off pieces to get a feel for how much pressure was needed. I finished up with a 3m sanding block and some 200/400 grit sandpaper.
No plans yet to add any door trim, like the look so far without it.

Looks really great ST! I regret not taking the time with my cuts then sanding for the trim-less look. Drew@ORE and Skid_Kid have their fenders this way and it looks clean!

Thanks guys, that first cut was tough, couldn't have done it without everyone's help, took my time and I'm happy how they turned out. Paisano texted me a pic of his fenders still in his boxers at 7am after I'd sent him a PM the night before and Rox-n-Mud sent a great step by step tutorial of how he did his. Thanks for all the help!
