Default Plastic Pins on engine covers

Just had my car rust protected from CARWELL did an awesome job....

But they broke all the plastic pins that hold the black covers on around the engine.(I am not taking about the one in the middle on the engine)

Any ideas where I can get more? or a part number? or any suggestions? It would be appreciated.

honestly, i removed 3/4 of those clips to save time when i remove the panels. 2 for each side panel and one in the middle of the center panel are all i still have in and it fits perfect with no rattling.

Yea pretty much all of the pins are broken. It was toward the end of the day and the guy just yanked then covers off apparently wanted to go home. They took $30 off the job good enough for me I just prefer to replace them.

I think the part number is different for different years. I have ordered them from Sewell for my 06 P/N 53259-0E010 about $2.31 ea
