Drill hole, Grab a Qtip and dip it in some rust-prevention paint and swirl around the hole, Let dry 10-18min and install.
You want to got the extra mile do the above then use Transtar Amber Rust Proofing and it's 36" 360* spray flexible undercoating wand. Stuff the want into the holes and coat the piss out of the inside. Let it drip for the next 2 hours. Clean off the outside with some acetone and then install. Remember the rockers aren't sealed from the factory. The pinch weld is spot welded and there are holes to allow drainage and stuff to enter.
So should you paint the areas where you drilled the holes you're not compromising it's ability to withstand rust anymore than OEM did. These cars will be rust buckets in a few years anyway. Just peel the wheel liner from the back of the front fender and in front of the tire on the rear wheel well and look what has already accumulated.
