Tracking down the rivets could flag authorities as well. This is a project that is best handled legally, or kept off the boards and off anyone's radar. It's been discussed heavily in detail but always boils down to the same thing: many will tell you to do the wrong thing and it doesn't matter etc., but none of them would be willing to trade places with you if you were to get caught.

Everyone knows a guy who knows a guy who does it for a living and never gets in trouble, but last I checked no common auto mechanic can supersede state or federal laws or mandates, which really is what you're up against.

Best of luck with your situation.
