I have shaved one before, but ended up replacing the cab because the whole side of it was messed up. The hardest part was the corners by the pillars. I did is so that the front of the roof was flat instead of set up like that. I don't have the pics though. I will try to get some next time I go home(christmas). Hope this helps.

While I've never really liked the way the shaved rail makes the truck look, the way they did the leading edge on the yellow truck actually looks pretty good.

I like the way the yellow truck is shaved also, very tastefully done!

the way i look at it is, you do what you want it to look like. there or lots of ways to do it. some harder than others. the only thing i will recommend you do, is cut a little bit off, then put a bunch of tacks on. you don't want your cab coming apart.
