Rivot gun for stock fenders?
 
I replaced my stock fenders and I'm having a heck of a time with the rivets. I bought new rivets from the Jeep parts dept. I can not find a gun that will work with them.

The only place I have tried is O'Riley. Two dif guns and the attachments were too small for the Jeep rivet.

Any ideas?

Amazon. Search plastic rivet gun. Its black. Runs like 30$ with rivets!
Bought one for my bumper chop I did.

I am little confused. I have pulled my fenders when I cut them and all I needed to take off was those crappy plastic screws. I guess you might consider them rivets but all I did was push them back in.

There are T clips, reusable push pin style clips and actual rivets. The rivets are at the outer edge of the fender. If you were doing the chop, you prob just cut the outside part off rivets and all.

We made the mistake of separating the liners from the fender.

I'll look into this.

I was hoping Pep Boys or one of the big box stores might have something that would work.
