this has probably been asked before, but how can i damage the fenders and exhaust sheilds on my torro tiger1? tried the open flame method, but it makes plastic curla nd smooth out. possibly thinking of using a hair drier to heat the plastic, but not sure if it would get hot enough. thoughts anyone?

Re: fender damage
Hi, I use a Black & decker hot air gun. you need to heat the fender slowly and us a tool to bend the plastic to shape. hope this helps.
It is not the pace of life that worrys me, its the sudden stop at the end.

Re: fender damage
Not done it myself but heard heat gun and pliers, but make sure the pliers are smooth otherwise will leave the grip makes.
Also for rust or bullet holes in the exhaust sheild soldering iron with point attachment to melt through or dint.

Re: fender damage
Hi
I use my soldering iron
Hold it close to, not touching
Then use something to make a dent or bend.
