Default Billet fender rivets

Im asking if someone knows if the billet rivets from the ranger will fit the XP.I have had it with popping the plastic ones off of the fenders from brush and rocks.I know that I have a choice of buying plastic rivets from polaris, pop rivets,or plastic ties. Im thinking the billet rivets might stay put ANY POSITIVE INPUT? IPure polaris web site has them listed for there ranger but no picture plus there about the same price as the plastic rivets from polaris.Billet Equipped Billet Rivet Kit

I can't say that I've ever seen them on a rzr or a rhino, they would look pretty slick though

Those look sweet!! But for $123 bucks, how many do you get? have you checked Home Depot or Lowes for anything similar??? How about a fastener distributer?? You might be able to find something nice but for allot less $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$ Also as far as fitting...a drill will will make'em fit if they are too large, some washers if they are too small. Nice find by the way!!

Hey Gaspumpcity, I did a search and came up with these from Auto Zone.

They aren't as flashy as the billet ones but at $2.29 for 2 of them they are way more cost effective. Also if you notice these screw in instead of snapping like to Polaris ones....just a thought, hope it helps!!!

That's funny, I just bought a bag of 7 of thoses replacement push rivets from NAPA. Yes, seven in a bag makes no sense to me either, but I noticed when they get pulled out, they don't hold nearly as well as new ones. So I changed the two at the front fenders, and the ones on the gas tank shields, at the bottom, as they had both been ripped off. (4" deadfall run over will sometimes break up and get lodged in suspension and other things)
