If you have a router, you could cut out a wooden circle, then rout the metal. It's hard to explain in words so ill have to do a ms paint rendering for ya. But you should definitely put the shiny side out and polish the heck out of it.

The radius of your template would be the radius of the wheel cover minus the length from the edge of the router bit to the edge of the router. Get it?
