I was just wondering the other night whether I could get away with cutting it and reshaping it, and this video confirms I can, thanks!

Excellent video and description, I've been doing this for years on various cars and vans... saves a lot of extra work 😊

Wish you captured the bending and fitting process

Let's not forget to use anti rust to wipe down that cut afterwards.

I've cut some into two pieces and fitted them with no problems also

Is that very hard to fit the shield in just one cut. Or is that possible to cut them in half

Good video! Do you know if it works on a Mercedes b200?

It should work the same way

Cutting the backing plate like that creates corrosion weakness points. Have you considered applying a rust preventing coating on these cuts?

Great observation! Yes, we would prime the exposed bare metal, touch it up with paint, and apply the seem sealer.
