Default Finally cut the fenders and bumper + RC stock stubby kit

Lots of reading on JK-FORUM.com

I used a utility knife to cut the fenders off (while on the jeep) and a multi-tool to cut the undersupports

For the bumper used a saw-zaw to cust the plastic off and then a 4" cut off wheel to cut the metal. Also I was not happy with the plastic x-mas tree plugs holding the caps on so I used 1/4 inch heavy duty rivets and secured them through the metal

I'm very happy with this for less than $100 total

Did you leave inside fender lining on while cutting? I want to trim my fenders also but don't want to take the liners off.
