Bondo and touch up paint. THere is no cheap way around it that will look decent. Just do it right.

If you aren't gonna pay to get it welded smooth just get a powered antenna like on T/A's. That way you'll get the smooth look with out the ghetto part.

Bondo is surprisingly easy to work with, but sanding it is going to really mess up the area. Maybe try something as simple as a milk bottle cap and some light glue? Just hold it in place temporarily. THey sell hole plugs are Home Depot which would pop right in, bit its not going to sit flush like a piece of plastic would.
