Definitely go slow. And measure before you cut. I took my time and it came out nice I think. I used a sawzall.

My only input is to not take off too much. You can take a bit more after if you choose but go too narrow and you're stuck with it. I went just inside the outer edge (where it bends downward) and it was plenty. Leaves enough so water doesn't fly up on me when turning through water, such as sprinkler run-off crossing streets in the neighborhood.
I have done 2 sets of non painted and 1 set of painted. I have found it is easy to use a jigsaw with a fine tooth metal blade.use lots of masking tape to help with everything from shaping them to protecting the paint from the jigsaw. Take your time and you will be fine. Like the others said don't cut too much you can always cut again.
Thanks for all the input. Much appreciated
