I've done this on both my Boxsters. The amount you grind out is maybe 5mm or maybe a bit more. If you are near and tidy you can barely tell the difference. At the end when finished there is a plastic cap that covers this area and then a scuttle cover. I would be surprised if any service tech even noticed. I run approx -2 all round on a road only car.

Do you know the size of the cutting Drill bit you used off hand?
