Re: vin plate rivots

Now i'm not recomending it mind you... But it's awful easy to make rosett rivets out of regular old pop rivets with a die grinder. Or so i've been told. john

Re: vin plate rivots

I heard a guy say that he took the rosette part of the original rivets & traced them onto regular rivets & used a chain saw (round) file to make some. He said it took about an hour to get four really nice ones.

But you know how folks will lie.............
