Default Need Fastener for trim above bumper

All,
Trim above the bumper fell off in a backup accident.

Looks like these trim fasteners broke.
Went to the autoparts store and nothing like this around..

pictures Attached as attachments.

Any ideas?

Need three of them.
You are mighty nice to check..
But, I would not worry about it.
Looks like I need to give Atlantic British some business.
Thanks guys for nailing this part down for me.

I bought two boxes of generic fasteners from Autozone and none of them fit.

Be careful how you back up.
If there is a car behind you - well, it can remove these parts by breaking off the fasteners.

Hi guys,
I tried searching with no luck so thought I'd revive this old thread.

I ordered these fasteners from Atlantic British, but I'm having a difficult time re-installing the trim piece. I broke one of the clips in the process and have left it alone so I don't break more.
Is there a trick to getting the piece to slide in with the fasteners? I think mine might be more of a tight squeeze because I have a safari guard rear bumper. Should the clips go in the trim piece first, then in to the panel? Or clips in the panel first and slide the trim piece on to them?

Thanks for the help!

Also try Eblag as they sometimes sell LR trim clips.

The way I do it is by installing the one on the side on the car first. The two that go in straight on the trim piece. The carefully align the two and make sure the side one slides in the trim piece as your applying pressure. Press in to hear it clip and walaaa. The trick is removing it without breaking the side piece if you ever need too.
