The repair kit comes with the punch and die set for making the grommets permanent. Then you can zip tie them to the frame.
That was my plan, but I might do some thin sheetmetal like the other guys said...it depends...

And as for the other guys, my only tool for working with metal is a dremel with a 1in (I think) cutting wheel. ironically i used it the other day to cut a notch in a stripped screw, so I know it works quite well on metal, I'll just have to find some REALLY thin stuff... I was looking at some stuff called Rhino Canvas on amazon, but I might look for some sheet metal to use!
