I am wondering if anyone can tell me the size of pop rivets needed for attaching stone guards on the rear wings.

Also where to get black ones from? As I can't seem to find them and don't want to get it from Caterham.

The build guide says 1/8" diameter, I can't remember the length.
There are plenty of black aluminium pop rivets on Ebay.

1/8 x .51". ( I guess 1/2" would be OK!)

A tip is to put washers on the back, to make sure the rivet doesn't pull into the composite.

Should find black rivets and washers easy enough on line.
