my vote sanding flapper disc. ya it will leave some marks. but just thinking about trying to drill them out. that sounds like murder of the muscles, and then frustration of keeping the rivets from spinning on ya.
i had a rough time finding flapper discs in different sizes at local stores. even large hardware stores. looking from sanding, to drills, to dremals. i finally found a source at farmking near by me. if it was not for that, i would be forced to order the flapper sanding discs online. to get a smaller thickness.
i take above back, i found some small thickness sanding flapper discs in "toolshop" all in one kit for a dremal.
smaller size corded electrical drill with a lock button to keep trigger held. or a dremal has worked for me in other projects. though rivets have not had to deal with in ages...

torch them out?
isn't there an actual tool to remove pop rivets?
