When drilling the spot welds out to take off the old quarter i went a little to far... will this be ok ? or should i try to plug the hole from both sides with the mig welder from the inside.

Any input before i go ahead and do something i may regret? i thought i would just go ahead and drill into the new quarter and try to weld it to all two pieces of the rear sail panel? is that right?
