As long as you support the area you're drilling through from the top and bottom, you shouldn't have any issues whatsoever. Just sandwich the CP between two pieces of MDF or plywood, and drill away.

Here's a few shots of the process I took to cover my holes:

First, a shot of my panel after I sandblasted and primed it:




Here I epoxied two squares of plexiglass over my unwanted holes.



Next, mix up some body filler putty:



Then fill in the gap on top after the epoxy has dried.



After that, sand up to 600 grit or so, reprime, and you're ready to paint or apply your overlay.

Ok, I'm back!

Managed to get some pics... This thing's a real mess...

This past weekend I managed to:

- Remove the tube, controls & buttons it came with, cabling, random *crap*
- Clean it, remove dust, etc...

Here are some pics....  So now, I'm a bit overwhelmed as to how to continue...  Sanding?
