You will need a plastic filler and some plastic paint to repair the holes, but you will not have the texture as the rest of the dash.

The gauge pillar should come with plastic plugs that connect your stock 'A' pillar to the gauge pod. They basically hold the two together to look like one piece. Go to the hardware store and find the same type plastic plugs, paint them to match and plug them into the dash. Most people wont even notice. Post up a pic of what you're trying to fix.
