So a couple weeks ago I traded my FC for another 240

Apparently the original owner decided to rivet JUST ONE of the front strut towers too "reinforce" the chassis for strength..

When I first saw it, I wasnt bothered by it THAT much but now I cant stand seeing it. It looks like ass and I think it actually made the chassis weaker.

So my question is, what are my options on fixing this? I was thinking to drill them out and have everything stitch welded

(note: its not even all the way around.. just halfway

)
