Default hood stand issue

I've got a 2004 IS 300 and when I want to put the hood up the hood stand clip that holds the stand is broken. I just bought this Lexus and love it but basically every vehicle I looked at had the same problem. Where do I find the part to fix this?

By the way I LOVE my car. I let my wife drive it the other day for the first time and she came home with the biggest smile on her face. Probably a boyfriend...... but I would like to think it is the car

Buy a new one or get hood struts. I recommend hood struts.
