Most of us do it ourselves, it's pretty simple and takes an hour or two..... Do a search in here and you'll find threads and pics.

I did mine with an air saw, then grinded the roough edge smooth. It came out great, but was a little nerve racking for sure. Whatever you do, take your time.

did mine with a metal grinder then smoothed it down with a dremel. it came out nice. Also remember to put primer on what you cut/grind so that the fendor does not rust.
