If you can get metal strip thin enough, that's 1" x 3', with matching holes cut out, you should be able to overlay the existing length of door, and re-create the damaged holes...

It's not a load-bearing part, so silicone or other adhesive should suffice.

if your fixing it yourself use compatible materials for the repair. im not sure on your year vette but i dont think you can just use any fiberglass resin.
