My first thought was a cutoff wheel in a die grinder, assuming you have an air compressor. Mark the cut line with a Sharpie. Go slow and steady using both hands to hold the die grinder and you can cut a fairly clean circle of that size. Cut towards the inside of the line then use a sanding drum or carbide burr to finish the shape and clean up the edge. Todd Seattle,WA '86 GTI, Red of course.
