i used a dremel with small cutting disc. made a cardboard template to get the sides even and tehn masked the line to cut.

mine though is a fair bit lower than xtremes and is narrowed as well...

Dremel with a plastic cutting wheel. Made my line with painters tape. Then sand the edges smooth.

I've cut down a few it's really not that hard. Just remember you can always take some more off but you can't put it back on.

Here's the 3 that I've done.

Two guns you got any close up pics of that race pipe clearing the pulley tensionser.

Did you have to persuade the pipe a little?

Put mine on when I first picked up the ss and still had the s, sounded awesome but didn't clear the tensioner.
