So, i have no surviving inner fender or front bumper fastners. They were some sort of 2 piece locking pieces.
Dealer wants 2 bucks each. Parts store has nothing visually the same.
What are my options here? Don't have to be the factory hardware, but strudy and easy.
50 bucks worth of plastic pins is stupid.
I have no solution but I'm following
I say a tiny prayer to the gods every time I have to pop one of them out.
The gods were merciful during my last fender well clean out, but I'd like to prepare for when my good fortune fades.

If you don't have Prime, I can buy them for you and send them as a gift if you can paypal me.
In reply to mtn:
Done!!!!!!!
Thanks. Can you pm me your PayPal?
Those don't list the NB on the listed applications. Not sure if it's an oversight or if they're a different size.
Please update when you try them

Send me an email at mtnZZZZZovaZZZZZk1 at yahoo dot com. Remove the Z's. Sorry, since I'm on yahoo I can't PM folks.
I'll need your name and address to send them. Also, they look identical to the ones I bought for my NB, but no promises!

And theoretically you have fasteners on the way. Hope it works out!
Thanks man. I appreciate the assistance. Normally I dont look on amazon due to shipping killing the savings, and me being far too cheap to spring for prime.

That style of fastener was also used on the first generation of Focuses and I have found them in the hardware section of the local Lowe's where they have automotive fasteners.
