The bike will look so much better. Makes it easy to polish up the pipes. The fenders now are just causing drag. I guarantee you'll love it. Unless you F up cutting. I used a dremmel. Started cutting off large pieces until I was down to a close trim. Then i used some white electrical tape as a guide. Electrical tape bends nice. I used a new box cutter for touch ups. Not perfectly smooth up close. But who cares!

I just noticed you're from Washington. Leave the fenders. Aren't you trail riding and muddin'?

One of my buddies used a heating torch to smoothen up the edge when he was done cutting. Looked badass!

No I really don't ride in the woods any more. It is too much of a pain getting all the mud out of everything. I think my raptor will look good without the elephant ears on the front.

I agree. Those Raptor fenders look pretty stupid. I keep telling my roomate to cut his. I'm not sure how it will look with those hideous stock lights. Screw it! Just chop 'em!

I've got plans on buying the trail tech light that fit in your stock place. I think it will look good
