Take your drill with a 1/4" drill bit.  take some pliers and hold the underneath side of the rivet.  Carefully and slowly drill the head of the rivet.  it will pop off the head very quickly, be prepared.  Then just pull with the pliers and you will not damage anything.   Works everytime without fail.

get a small drill bit that will fit through the middle of it and drill it out and it should fall apart then :thumbs:

Thanks for the help.  Also I saw a Raptor with custom carbon fiber panels where the labels used to be.  Does anyone know how that was made?? or Who makes them?? or where to get it??

It was me that had those carbon fiber covers.   I got them from Carbon Covers.   The color in the pics do not do them justice.  They are a great match to the stock colors.   They look really good on the bike in person...

I mentioned something to my buddy about warning label covers & he thought a beer can would look good mounted there, I say red bull.....
