Cutting straight lines on lexan?

[Lucifur10]

So what's the best way to cut straight lines on lexan bodies ? I've got a Dodge Charger Daytona that has a bunch of straight lines. I always seem to end up with wavy lines when I use lexan scissors. The Daytona is the one with the drop nose and high wing. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

a sharp hobby knife or razorblade and a steady hand. score (more than once if you have to), bend over, and "snap" off.

Hobby knife and the scoring method worked great.

I used to have the same problem. After I was informed of using a hobby knife and then breaking the lexan, the universe became a better place.

Absolutely. I was way over thinking it.

Credit card always worked for me.
Score method works wonders until you get to the .060 or .080 thickness. That's a pain.
