I'm missing these screws

I guess I could go by a junk yard and find them but does anyone know where I can find them online? They are from the rear bumper and Aero rear valance. I looked at Lowes but they don't have any like that. I also need that rubber washer. Does anyone have them that took their stock rear bumper off for an aftermarket one?

Why not just go to a dealership?

I did, they don't have those.

I'll be mailing those to an online store so I can get the exact same ones.

Those look like pretty standard self tapping sheet metal screws. Ace Hardware (or your own friendly neighborhood hardware store) will carry those as well as and assortment of rubber washers.

I wasted half a day and half a tank of gas looking for those screws and that washer

Still need them.

I'm surprised that your dealer wouldn't have them. Those screws are all over the car. I mean, the dealer HAS to have those in case of repair. At the very least, if you get desperate, you can probably have a body shop order them for you.

Went and bought some screw drivers and found some rubber type washers in the casing they were in

You could just buy some regular sheet metal screws and use some thin washers, or even reaplce the screws with nuts and bolts for a little more permanent hold. I'm not sure exactly what the application is, but I'm sure some variation from the OE wouldn't be too bad.

Maybe. That pic is too bad to tell but it mounts in the same spot. I'll order some.


Today I went by a body shop the local Infiniti dealer uses. They said they don't sell parts there only do body work

Check out www.everythingg35.com or call them at 1-888-216-5328 if you can't find the screws on the site. Might as well order some more stuff at the same time to make the shipping worth it.

Ordered some of what I thought were the right screws from infiniti-parts.com
I just picked 4 of each from around the bumper and fender. This is what came in.
The small black screws at the bottom I need. The silver ones I don't need. And the clips at the top left I need. I wish the silver screws were the black ones since I need more black ones There is another version of the black screws which are bigger that are around my rear bumper and rear Nismo valace that are not suppose to be used so I'll need to order the plastic fittings that the small screws go into to make it right

I just ordered 12 more of the lil ones and the grommets they go into

They are $1.76 each. They are not a lot considering you cant and wont find them any place else.
