Has anyone used a nibbling cutter to make a new or increse size of an existing window or door opening on a plastic passenger car? Wondering about the pros and cons.

If that is all you have, why not? I use a Dremel and a file for the corners when I add messenger windows. If you have a drill press,, cut with the body of the bit rather than the point. Like a router. Then file to the corners.

You would have to have the cutter head inside the car, no? I would think the outside of the car would get marred by the tool.

Maybe start by taking a scribing tool and indent the outline of the new opening? That might lessen having a rough edge....
Rough cut with a dremel disc. File with a blind side file (blank side, no teeth)
You can mask teeth to some extent, but a blind edge file works best for corners imo.
It seems my previous attempt to acknowledge all your replies and thank you for the advice and tips didn't work. So, thanks again!
