I tried to buy some of those reuseable plastic rivets that hold on the undercarriage plastic covers (engine lower cover, fender liners, etc) but was unsuccessful.
Anyone find these things besides at the dealer?
How much are they at the dealer?

when my fender liner blew out i put it back with zip ties. cheap, effective, and ghetto
Some hardware and home improvement stores have a special drawer in their washer/nut department for things like that.
I know Lowe's has a selection of plastic rivets.

Did you price them at the dealer? I bought a handfull a while ago and I don't remember them being expensive at all.

PEP BOYS carries tons of rivets. I had to get some after installing my CAI and misplacing a couple. :D

Thanks, I'll check the dealer and Pep Boys.
The local dealer near where I work though charges OVER suggested retail for parts. They don't haggle either.

I had to get some after my plastic inner fender fell out one day driving down the road! Luckly I had some saved up from molding strip that came off of some old car my dad worked on.
I go to a big car meet-parts swap every year and I plan on getting a bag full of them. They are everywhere there. You can use those things in so many places.
