Craft knife for straight lines, circle cutter for wheel arches, thats all you need, available cheaply from most model shops and hobby places.

Curved scissors are a good safe alternative to a knife, but is not quite as good a finish. However, some 500grit wet and dry works wonders for smoothing a cut edge.
