    I've tried that. They are highly effective, but not very accurate.

    Getting ready to swap my new grill on, and then I'll be cutting the old one. I figure on using a dremel for mine.

      I find I use this one a lot as well depends on the areas im cutting and the precision needed

          Wellllll I got impatient and jumped in 2 feet forward!



          The red line is where I cut.. apperently it's not where other people cut... but for all intensive purposes... It's where I cut!


          Didn't turn out as bad as I thought it would.. for using a diamond cut-off wheel (my dremel is screwed up.. the locking mechanism is broken so I can't change bits!) and a bit of sand paper!

            Added some mesh...



            Hoping to go over that with some Fiberglass or epoxy to make it stronger... but the hot glue is holding fine for now lol




            This will look AWESOME when it's painted
