i am aware of the numerous stock fender chops. unfortunately i have wide xenons and was wondering if anyone has chopped them (should have bought narrow).

Why would you trim something that's already a flat fender?

the width is the issue. 1.5" greater than stock.

So sell them and get the Xenon narrows. you could chop them, but you're covering new ground here. They might not maintain any stiffness, or they might look like re-heated dog puke. You never know...
