They are riveted and bonded to the quarter panels. It can be done but will require the removal of the quarters and then breaking them out. I have done it, good luck.

If you're talking about the rear brake duct inserts, they are riveted from the inside. The rockers are bonded.

It's not an easy job, but can be done. Here's a related thread: https://www.corvetteforum.com/forums...t-removal.html
