step one : take a few pictures to remember how your car looked before

step two : have alcoholic beverage chilled on the side

step three: bust out the dremel or other cutting tool (honestly i used a sharp pair of scissors... then later i busted out the dremel and smoothed it down)

step four : do work!

step five : step back and admire handywork

step six : open ice cold alcoholic beverage and enjoy

btw i only cut out that section because i hit a piece of 16wheeler tread on the freeway going 60mph so most of those plasic things were just hanging off. it doesnt look that bad if you only cut the vanes and not the whole thing. It'll look weird at first but it'll grow on you. I recommend (sounds ghetto but better than getting rocks in your condenser or radiator) using some mesh (i.e. chicken wire the really close kind that looks like the stuff you use on a screen door) to protect those pieces.
