Thoughts on drilling holes thru good paint?

Double sided tape is thick and ugly, and the half assed way to do it.

Just take your time, measure like five times, use tape and a really good drill and bit, maybe even use a dremal so that you have more control and a smaller tool, and do the job right. You'll be happy that you did in the long run. It will look better, wont randomly fall off, and wont have ugly tape backing it.

Amen brother!
