UPDATE: Please ignore this post. CS4-4 is not used on the leading edge. AD-41-ABS is. Sorry for the confusion!

It's not perfectly clear from the plans whether the holes for the rudder's leading edge should be dimpled or not for the CS4-4 blind rivets?
I made the assumption that since the CS4-4 rivets have a flat back surface on the machine head, that dimpling would not be appropriate.
However, a few paragraphs later for the counterbalance weight, for the CS4-4 rivet to prevent pillowing between the 2 #8 screws, the plans say to dimple the skin! That made me quite sick!
Should I have dimpled all those leading edge holes? If so, is it worth drilling them all out to make the rivets all flush?
