i wouldnt suggest it...theyre way to jumpy and uncontrolled. i used a cut off wheel on a dremel tool to do mine today and it worked great
here is mine. just took a little off but made a cool design.

I used a ban saw to cut the shape, masking tape for a straight line razor blades to scrape off the jaged edges, and sandpaper on a woodblock to keep the edges straight and smouth and primed/sanded it for paint. Took me about 4 or 5 hours to get it how I wanted it or a weekend job. If you work on it most of the time.I:I
haha thanks i thought about how a few cuts here and there could turn blaster fenders into a knock off yfz or raptor lookin fender so i gave it a shot. it turned out pretty good but i still need to clean em up a lil bit
My friend started to try to make his plastics into race plastics. He started to cut the bottoms off . I have no idea what he was trying to do. It doesn't look like anything you guys are doing. The plastics are still in good condition and now I'm trying to sell them. http://www.blasterforum.com/sale-18/blue-plastics-sale-racing-cut-41723/
yea that just looks like somethin he did becuase he got bored and wanted to get dirtyer when he rode
lol he did want race plastics even tho all he was going to do was trail ride so may be yup.
race fenders kinda just boil down to personal prefference. to give your bike a more sporty look obviously. the pictures that have been posted already kinda represent race fenders. some people cut their fenders down so that they are really short like a few inches wide so that they stop right at the top of the rise in the fenders. go for what you think looks best and be creative. start with tape. i cant even explain how much tape saved my ass because if i just went in there cuttin my fenders would look nothing like they do right now.
was looking for a "shaved fender" post that had pics of everyones shaved fenders. this was the one of the few that had pics of different shaved fender. I used a construction grade razor with a handle to cut these. then sanded the edges with 100 grit sand paper wrapped around a wood block. when sanding make sure your strokes are the entire length of the line youre sanding.
