Default Fender ideas, anyone have any?

So I would like to change my fenders. I like the look of flat fenders plus it would eliminate my fender rub.

Problem is I cant cut the fenders, nor do I have the money to afford aftermarket ones... I dont get why a piece of plastic costs $500+... but whatever.

So im asking if people have any ideas on what could be done. Or have any links to where people made their own fenders or a link to a less expensive aftermarket one that is still durable.

anyone have any ideas?! All are welcome!

You could always drive to San Diego and buy some that are already chopped for 130

What's the issue with not being able to cut them yourself?

Cutting them is the way to go. You can save that money for something else. Here is mine, it was easier than I thought it would be.

I would love to cut them! But the ..higher powers will not let me.. So I'm just looking for other alternatives for this. If someone in the Denver or Colorado area has some stock fenders that they don't want I'm all game for them!
