I cut mine myself.....Just pop the ball off and cut it as short as you want....Once you get it cut to your size, taper the edge down to where the ball goes back on snug....I used a little JB weld to make sure it didn't come off....Once that is all done hit it with a little black paint.....Very good appearence mod IMO
