I am venturing here something that might be impractical or even impossible: what about gaining low-level access to the file allocation table and modifying it in such a way that the beginning point of a file is moved a few bytes after its current position? This way, no re-writing of the file would be needed. Does this make sense?

I see a SetEndOfFile function on MSDN, but i can't find anything for setting the beginning of file.
