If for a track car id just cut some plate to just just bigger than the hole and seal it down and rivet it. Or, fabricate a plate, weld it in, sand back, fill it where necessary and spray paint.

This is exactly what I had done to mine. I got it done at a body repair place, they strongly advised against fitting it *in* the hole as it'd be weaker, harder to attach and would just pop out in a roll. Doesn't look as neat maybe, but this was glued and spot-welded over the hole:



No chance of it popping into the car in a roll that way, that would not be good.

A company called performance trim used to sell them, I have a carbon one from them that is currently fitted to my old grey shell, when I get back to the uk I will cut the sealant and take some pics.
It just bonds in where the sunroof used to sit (flush with the roof skin)
