Default How to install fender flare rivets

Im replacing my stock fender flare and need some info on how to install the plastic rivets. I have new ones. Do you just use a regular riveter? Probably simple right?

Get one of these or similar. Not sure a standard rivet gun will handle the larger diameter shafts of the plastic rivets.
