Two ways:

Buy a pound of the correct size hollow rivets (several thousand) and the 
probably by now $70 rivet setting tool and rivet the nameplate onto the 
replacement top cover.

Attach the nameplate to the new cover with E-6000 (black), with the remains 
of the original rivets glued into the holes for alignment and external 
appearance.
