Default Hole left after taking off splash guards - help?

Hey guys. I removed the mudguards that came on my 2003 z. And it left a hole, a big one, too big for just a screw. Its on the rocker and it connects to some square connector on the inside of the rocker. IDK what kind of a retainer clip it takes or what. I would highly appreciate feedback, thanks! Here is a pic of the location, its behind the front wheel.

Updating your title to a better description and moving to the appropriate sub-forum. That should help your post get attention from the right folks.

It's like a Mod party up in this thread!

This is what you need OP, it's just a basic retaining clip.

Nissan offers an assortment of pop-clips (like those used in the engine bay for the front bumper). Always wise to keep an assortment of these on hand.

AutoZone, PepBoys, etc. also carry these in their assorted fasteners area.
