I used a cheap oscillating saw and lined the cut edges with split vacuum hose.

The dremel tool will definitely work for the core support as well. It's just a plastic / fiberglass material. Cuts very easy.

If you have a drill, These

worked great for me cutting the rad support for the intake silicone hoses to pass through. Just take your time working with them.

I brought the multi tool on sale for 14.99 and a blade for 7. It cut the rad support in no time. I also got the dremmel for 9.99 and I'm gonna use that to modify the cut off shield tomorrow. Thanks for all the tips.
