Take the bits of plastic you cut/drill/whatever out and use a soldering iron to melt and smush them back into the holes. You might have enough material inside that pocket still to do just that.

Naturally this will require a steady hand, but you can effectively plastic weld those holes closed, sand, and use a heat gun to hide them.

Wood chisels would be good for scraping the side to smooth and even it out. Just don't take too big of a bite or you may remove too much material.

He meant that the holes make it faster. Not, "you rushed it"

Most definitely rushed, this one’s just a test to figure out what tools are my personal favorite to use on the bridge
