1. One swing of the hammer and the central pin pops right through and out. The rivets are single use and the new ones (plus an extra) are included in the kit.
2. The screw just goes right into the plastic wheel liner. I drilled a guide hole but probably not even needed to be honest. Make sure to watch the video prior to installation. Took only a few minutes total for both sides and I'm not all that handy.
3. I think the rivets are single use. Honestly the rock chip shielding is important I wouldn't even take em off in summer.
I agree long is better. More protection. They aren't obtrusive or distracting like I was worried I thought they may be. Blends right in to lines of the car.
