Hello all,

I need some guidance on how to modify an existing part. I have attached photos of a basic front splitter I've had laying around for some years now, and I was wonder if and how I could go about repurposing it. It is pretty flexible by my estimation so I figure if I can cut it into smaller parts, I could use it as front lip and side skirt extensions. 

For the front, it would require changing the contour of the front edge to match the bumper lip, and the sides would be rectangular strips cut from the back edge of the part.

How do I go about getting clean cuts, and how should the cut edge be treated or finished? I have zero experience so I would be looking at getting tools, protection etc.
