the rivot remover tool is a drill bit .. you just drill out the little center section of the rivot head and it'll come loose .. so your gonna be left with a hole in your bumber where the rivots were located.
why not just get a set of stock springs and throw them in the car for the winter

I second the factory springs... the holes will either get larger or more numerous next year.
Just jack it up, add the factory rims, and have a blast!

Or spend $500 or less and get a beater for the winter like everyone else who has a modded Foci and a body kit.
Or steal mom's car.
