Thanks for the offers, the compressor route would be great, but i dont have a compressor.

I have a jig saw,too big to do the job.

Was looking for a dremel type saw thing.

i find the drimmel heats the plastic and drags, do my front bumpers for fmic by hand with a fine hacksaw blade then trim with blades to fine tune then wet and dry edges , saves cutting to much of in haste,
