D.I.Y. Mik Posted September 25, 2013 Share Posted September 25, 2013 For sure. Its better than bog that cracks. Weld if its steel, rivet if not. Or itll get ugly real quick. Maybe on a house or building it would work, cos they dont vibrate. Anyway thats my 2 cents.

ZRBE Posted September 25, 2013 Share Posted September 25, 2013 I reckon that gtr looks pretty cool with the rivets exposed Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/432156-rivet/#findComment-7037524 Share on other sites More sharing options...
colourclassic Posted September 25, 2013 Share Posted September 25, 2013 Both of the above cars look pretty great IMO. I'd rather sacrifice looks and keep the rivets/holes than using bog to fill, due to the above mention of cracks forming and general tackiness of using mass amounts of bog.

ZRBE Posted September 26, 2013 Share Posted September 26, 2013 Are these special rivets or would you have to drill them out to get the skirts off? Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/432156-rivet/#findComment-7038358 Share on other sites More sharing options...

colourclassic Posted September 27, 2013 Share Posted September 27, 2013 I wonder if those plastic sleeved rivets would be more gentle on things like fibreglass mounting points, which can't sustain high tension without cracking...
