Hi Folks,
So what is the consensus on plating the windshield surround? Is it absolutely necessary to drill out all the rivets and plate separately, then hope to get new rivets in without damaging the fresh plating? If so, I have found through searching that BCS has the rivets, but I would have no idea where to find a tool to do it, besides a hammer.
I would much prefer to just take it as best it can be done without popping all the rivets out, and some older posts linked to some pictures of the side pieces done that way...however those old links are broken. Can someone point me to some pictures of an after shot of plating done with all the rivets left in place?
Thanks a bunch!
