Ok so I have my skirt all modified up to fit my canopy/frame and i have the inside painted a powder coat matching color.
#1? Do you leave the "keeper" rivets in the canopy and just use the remaining holes?
If no then what precautions do you use when drilling the "keeper" rivets out.
#2? how much "pull" will the rivets have on the canopy skirt to frame, if I put in clecos it pulls the skirt in pretty nice and tight, there are only a few gaps of about 1/16 or so. I just worry that if I counter sink the fiberglass that there will not be much pull and possibly pull through the glass. I guess I wonder if the rivets will hold as well as clecos will?
searched the threads and didnt see anything about this.
cheers
