Has anyone had any luck cutting the rubber shirts to maker a bit shorter? I have an extra Hulk Rules shirt from E34 (I believe) and want to put it on one of my Hogans along with the Winged Eagle belt but the belt isn't long enough; the shirt obviously makes the waist larger. So I was thinking about trimming the shirt to make it shorter but not sure that would come out well. Probably a stupid question but with all the great customizers here, I figure I'd throw it out and ask.
Thanks!

I cut mine in about 30 seconds. It looks much better.

Heat it first and it will cut really easily.

In addition to heat, I suggest using some (painter's) tape to help line up your cut.

Buy a pair of heavy duty shop scissors. They cut through any material you can imagine

yeah only thing I noticed is the hogan shirt looks like many little cuts at the bottom. When I did my Billy Gunn I used big scissors and made just cuts. Not criticizing - just sayin'. I love that Hogan in the box.
