This is the VS lower rib intersection with the mid spar. I put the first two rivets in opposite from the way you see them now and the were a real pain to buck. I goofed up on rivet and decided to drill it out, I also drilled out the first rivet because I realized it would be much easier to buck the other way around due to the funky angle the forward rib is bent. It would be DWG 6 for those working on a 7/8/9. When I was finished, with the rivets going in the easier way the rib flange does not lay flat to the spar. It does were the rivet are located but there is some daylight between the rivets.

So what now? Will this do or do I drill out the rivets and try again maybe with another part. Do I add two more rivets:confused, I think there is space enough? Thank you in advance for your advice.
