how to remove bumper cap retainers

Wll I have a 2000 xj classic and it had all that funky plastic trim and oversized bumper caps, I am trying to remove the rear bumper-cap retaining clips but would like to know how they are attached to the fender before I drill them out and mess up the fenders too bad. They look like rivets but I want to know how the studs are attached to the fender, tapped, welded or glued?? should I drill them out or hack them off? Thanks for your suggestions.
