...yep quite a bit of trimming in the front especially at the vent area in the front voltex fender. Double over fender vent replaces fender vent.

I would take double over fender lay it on top of voltex fender locating the indentation at the fender below the vents and clamp it their and then in the front.

Then from behind the voltex fender start trimming slowly.

What tools? Something that will cut smoothly and not grab the material. In my my tool box i have a Snap On mini saw zall with an alum. cutting blade, for more detail work i would use a makita grinder with alum. cutting bit.

Sorry i don't loan out tools...but if your GF or wife is an S.I. swim suit model then i'd consider swapping tools
