Quick question. I am trying to remove the rivets holding the front spoiler in place. I have drilled through the rivet so the shank has been removed but I can't get the rivet to separate any ideas? I was using a 1/8" metal drill bit but was thinking of going to the next size(3/16" I believe) up to see if that does it.

ok...well the 3/16" bit worked. I was able to get the rivets out and the new black spoiler mounted.
