Front Aero Bumper expanding rivet
The aero front bumper has four holes in the bottom edge that accept expanding rivets, connecting it to the "fastening brackets". One of mine has gone missing.
I haven't seen these specific rivets in use anywhere else on the car. They're not the same as the wheel liner rivets. I can't see where they're listed separately on RealOEM with the other aero kit parts. I suspect they come with the pair of fastening brackets ($35).
I know I could just put a screw in there, or in all four of them for that matter. But any ideas on where I could secure one of these? Anyone have a magical part number?

MiniMania carries these: Expanding Rivets and these: Body Panel Fasteners
But you may want to contact them for inventory check. Their site doesn't always inform you when they're low or out of stock.
