Dimpling Error

Any suggestions on this one ? My dimple dye slipped out of the Vans pre-drilled hole on fuselage skin just as the plastic mallet struck. Now I have a new hole 1/4 in from the correct hole. YEEEEEK. How do I fix this ? Bearcat

Welcome to the club!

Nearly every builder does it at some point. There are several options for fixing it, a picture would help!
