Default Dr-20 question

Ok so I bought a set of dr-20s off my buddy a while ago for $80 because they were on his ek that caught on fire so I repainted them and they look good as new but the plastic fake rivets were all melted so I was just wondering if anybody knew where to get those little rivets I was gonna just leave them empty but if I can get them for like $20 or something cheap then I'll say **** it but thanks to anyone of they know anything

Just as a note of clarification, they're fake bolts not rivets. As for replacing them, I would recommend just tapping the holes left by the fake bolts and threading in a set of real bolts.

How did I "not answer your question"? I offered a solution to your problem, which is both cheap and easy. Way to be entirely ungrateful.

Watch your tone, as it is entirely too abrasive if you want to receive any help here what so ever. I didn't have to offer you any ideas to begin with, but I felt like lending a hand.

As for your fake bolts, talk to the manufacturer of the wheels and see if they don't sell them separately. There isn't really a market for fake plastic bolts out there, so the manufacturer will probably be your only real bet. Here's a link for contacting the manufacturer: http://www.dragwheels.com/contact.asp

Text can have an implied tone, especially when you write something like this:
we clear now?
Either way, you're not being very receptive and seem to misconstrue help for negative criticism. Best of luck with your searches.
