Tool to cut eg hatch bumper for foglight install???

[Sir_vtec]

hello everyone,

Need some advice and help here.

Just wondering what everyone is using to cut the grills on their Eg hatch bumpers to install the foglights?

I used a Swiss knife does a messy job and the blade bounced back and cut myself instead, now i got a 2 cm long and deep cut on the finger. :thumbdwn:

LOL same thing happened to me. Instead of my finger I cut my thigh. Close call.

Use a normal drill with a holesaw attachment. Works a treat!

Yeh x3... hack saw blade is the really small saw blades right? used to cut metal bars? and sandpaper FTW.

Dremel tool is great for a cleaner cut. You can use it for sanding too.

I used a stanley knife, worked well

i used a hack saw blade as well and just sand down the edges if you like, i didnt bother though because it wasnt going to be seen anyway

Thanks for the help fellas. Will be using a candle to heat it up then a stanley knife as it works well according to yonas.

i would have gone with the dremel. but if you don't already have one, they're not cheap. Stanley knives are only a few dollars anyway, so very cheap and effective.
