So I have a ule body drilled for eyes with covers. I am thinking of getting the hidden eye milling done. What would be the best way to fill in the old holes, what do I use?

Press in 6061 aluminum dowel pins, file off the excess and polish. I did this recently see my thread below.

Yes, that would be one of the ways you would need to do it if you want to annodize the body. Another way would be to have the holes welded. Make sure you use the same type of aluminum to fill the holes in both cases or the annodize will be different for the body and the fill.
