Get a waterproof water cover and cover the car, make hole tru the windscreen so you can see where to drive and drive to the shop and weld it with a piece of metal and smooth it out on top.

or just duck tape it from the inside and drive down to the shop, they shold not charge you $20 to weld the hole for you.

If you are gonna do it though, you might as well do it right. Temporary fixes are just that. They cost money and you will keep doing it and doing it again. Any body man will tell you using bondo or fiberglass on something that slams a lot will crack it. I had shaved door handles on my old truck and the body man used too much filler on the passenger door and over a 6 month period it had cracked already.

Take it somewhere and just get it welded up. You'll save money in the long run.

For now just get a sheet of vinyl stick material the same color as your car and cut little squares to cover the holes until you can get it welded. We did it on my buddies white cobra and you couldnt even tell until you where right on it.
