Put the two screws back in the handle area, but only halfway.
Place the Mac facedown on something soft then use the Torx driver in the screw
heads to press downwards while pulling up on the handle with your other hand.
When replacing screws in plastic holes, place the screw in the hole then gently
turn if *backwards* with only the weight of the driver on it.
You'll feel, hear and possibly see it drop a bit when the thread aligns. Then
you may turn it clockwise into the original threads.
The screw holes will last much longer, especially with self tapping screws.
