    Had the same problem once, I was mounting a cab and was a little
    short on the bezel. I had read in a book, (I don't remember which
    one) that you can stretch a bezel by rolling it between a ring
    mandrel and a flat metal surface, like an anvil, it worked. For
    something small like yours, you might try a nail instead. 

    Also, try the article written by Leslee Frumin in March.

    and this one from Charles Lewton-Brain

Good luck
