Default Nismo Lip Clips

Hi I have an authentic nismo front lip for an 03 350z well today (after owning it for about 1 month) the lip got caught on the edge of the driveway and ripped off on the drivers side edge..... rest is fine just the edge came off. These black hole things broke off which secure the lip and it looks like they were molded on, is there a way to order these in ? or am I gonna have to get the bodyshop to glue it ? I am having like a panic attack lol it cost me $600 CAD now i wish i bought the fake one..

Here is a pic of what I mean

First let me say that if you bought a fake one, the whole thing would be garbage now from what you say happened. Those molded things cannot be ordered because it is a molded piece to the bumper. I broke one of mine while I was installing my lip. I tried glueing it on with everything available (epoxies, mighty putties, on and on.). In the end I proceeded with the installation without it and the other 2 on that side was enough to hold it perfect. Also the black rubber sealant strip that comes with it would ensure there are no gaps and the lip would stay flush. There is also a screw that secures the end to the edge of the fender well so you should be fine.
