Default Hole in gas tank!

We were just cutting off an old exhaust from a '93 EX that I bought and accidently nicked the gas tank with the recip. saw.

It is now smelling like gas, but not enough to leak. Is there a way to have someone patch that? Or am I stuck buying a whole new gas tank?

have ya tried duct tape?!

honestly.. why ride around knowing your tank is fucked when you can just get a new tank.. it would be safer.

or, yanno, you could go the welding route and die quicker
