Newbie say's hello

[Foggy]

Hi folks and all petrol heads, I bought my Z3 in 2002 brand new and ordered it in the colour and trim which I wanted. This made the car very special to me and I am proud to drive it,
Never had a new car before but fell in love with the good look's of the Zed 3, So when I heard it was to be discontinued I went ahead and bought mine. new 18 years on I am replacing the four panel which are rusting from inside with new OEM part's.
I am desperately in need of the four plastic rivets which hold up the rear bumper assembly via a key-hole slot device as the back 1/4 panel was not supplied with them also how in all all heck do you get them into a hole 1/2 their diameter ?

Any help much appreciated, also new to Forums of any sort so please excuse any gaff's
