Bondo,sanding and paint......unless you don't care if it shows.....then you could use JB weld,or something similar.

There will be a larger hole where the bulb holder is,then two screw holes on each light.

Just slop some JB weld up there, grind it and sand it down and paint it.

Seriously any body shop can fill the holes for you or just do a homemade job like I mentioned.

IMO the lights will look better than filling the holes with JB weld....

Id say keep the lights but if you dont like them, bondo them, get some rattle can that matches and paint the bondo, after that put on a visor so it will cover up the bondo parts.

or have it professionally fixed and re-painted
