crystalworks is on a distinguished road
Harbor Freight has a cheap handheld plastic rivet tool that is great for working on these things. Have used it with OE plastic rivets as well as aftermarket ones ordered on Amazon and it works great with all. The rivets it comes with are cheap and have a failure rate of about 10% but even they work for somethings.
It's compact too, though still requires wheel/tire removal to do the fender arches.
