patching holes

i took the high rise spoiler off my car a while ago(it looks much better now), but i have 6 screw holes where it used to be. i've just used rubber gaskets to keep the water out but i really need to fill them in. the body shops around here quoted me at $150-250 to fix. anyone got any home remedies, BTW i don't have access to a welder.

well eventually i'm going to get that 5" 3-piece spoiler but i won't have the money for that for a long time so i'm just going to clean up the rear by patching the holes. does that putty require me to take off the paint first?
