Default Cutting A Tamiya Hilux

I Recently Purchased A Tamiya Hilux Body, I'm Wanting To Trim The Fenders And Do A Little Cutting Of The Body, What's The Best Way To Cut Them? Being As They Are Hard Plastic It's Not As Easy As Cutting A Lexan Body. A Buddy Of Mine Mentioned Something About Somebody Using Dental Floss To Cut These Things??? Not Sure If You Guys Got Any Info On That As Well. Thanks In Advance For Any Info And Input

If you mean enlarging the fender wells to get more clearance, just use a Dremel with a sanding wheel. Use the slowest speed on the dremel.
