noob needs simple assistance

I just purchased my 2007 G35x the Friday after Thanksgiving. I am very excited to say the least. However, I have a question on where to get parts. I noticed that several of the plastic locking pieces that hold the fender cover in place are missing. I went to the local auto parts store and they were worthless. After 20 minutes of trying different solutions, he finally said I gues this is not something you can get here. Since this is a small town very few options exist. I am headed to the dealer next weekend (2 hour drive), but want to get these pieces to fix things myself. Also the 10mm screws are broken off in several places.

Any suggestions where to get these two items?

Thanks in advance.

If there's a Nissan dealer closer, you could get them there, too.

The plastic pieces sound like "plastic rivits", the broken 10mm screws are probably threaded into a "speed nut" sometimes called a tinnerman nut. Doorman products has tons of this kind of stuff. Search their site and find out what you need, then search the web for that paticular part number. The last plastic rivits I bought I found on ebay, cheap.
