Or...

There is another way. Those holes are so small that fiberglass-filled bondo will work. Sand down to the metal around the holes (bondo doesn't bond to paint and you'll need to spread more than just the hole for perfect smoothness.) Make sure you've scratched the paint out of the inside of the hole as well with a screwdriver or something. Spread the bondo. Sand it down flush and spray it with primer to see where it might need fill (when the primer is wet you can see what shiny paint would look like on it.) Use filling putty to smooth out the imperfections. I did this on my first super and it looked great. I'm in the process of doing the same thing now and should be finishing up tomorrow. In fact, I'll be posting some more pictures in my web link soon.
