I would use a dremel with a cutting disk. It would probably provide the cleanest edge. Mark it out with a marker and go to town.

I've heard that you should put tape on both sides and cut in the middle of your tape. This helps give your cut a cleaner edge....

tape it out with electrical tape, then use a tin snips to hack off the part that you dont want. you might have to cut chunks out of the excess part to get to the line that you want becuase you can only cut so much with a tin snips before it gets off track. i have done this to many peoples snowmobiles and they have all turned out real good
I use a rotozip and clean up the edges with our seamer at our glass shop. But you could clean up the eges with a regular sander.
Tin snips by far the best

i used reg. old scissors dont worry about the edge you cover it up with the black plastic surround.
Jmitchell, YEP just pull of the black edging cut it down to your preferred height and then reinstall the edging...I used a little gorilla glue to hold it in place. A blow dryer or heat gun will also help in reforming the edging to match up and retain the new form.
You may also want to consider painting your clear factory windscreen. The trick here is to paint the inside only. (obviously prior to re-installing the edging)
Heavy sissors work fine for the POLARIS IQ screen. Black electrical tape to trace your pattern and then cut it up.
