if you are gonna put it in the spare wheel well, you just grind that metal bit out.
angle grinders are cheap to buy, if not you can hir them from HSS

might sound bit butal but rather than cutting it would it be a good idea to just bash it flat with a hammer, cause what ever i do im gonna have to put some dynomat in there to stop vibrations.
