wheel arch trim rivet

Did Porsche really use a rivet to fasten the wheel arch liner to the front section of the Sill Cover on the turbo models? On my car it was replaced with a screw.

Yes, it was a rivet with a black plastic head.

Thanks George, I was hoping you would reply.

The part number in the PET seems to point to a metal pop rivet, which seems incorrect.

What kind of rivet would be a good substitute these days? Something like the plastic rivets used around the outside of the sunroof, maybe?

found these on Amazon... the one you need should be in the kit.
