I managed to put an extra dimple next to the hole I really wanted to dimple. What is the best course of action to fix this? This is the leading edge rib - top side aft most hole.

I was thinking of drilling out the dimple, and/or flattening it. Then making a small doubler for the flange and rivet the doubler using two flush rivets to the flange in between the aft most hole, and the 2nd aft most hole., and then riveting the skin through the rib, and the doubler for the aft most hole.
Or, I can always order a new rib.
