    I don't understand what I'm looking at, or what rivet you're missing.

    Maybe take a pic from further away, then take a step forward with another pic, and where is the location of the missing rivet?

    JB Weld a bolt or something like that on the cladding and slip it thru and pean it into "never coming off again" ville...ha! I'm not sure if they make clips for the cladding as I haven't taken mine off yet...

    I feel this would be a great place to use a pop rivet just find one that is the right size or drill the hole larger for the pop rivet.
