License plate screw holder thingy's

I bought some tinted plate covers, and i noticed on my back plate its missing the peice that goes onto your car so the bolt can thread in, also the one that's existing is fairly chewed up, dirty etc, i can't seem to find these anywhere, i went to the automotive section at Crappy Tire and they only have screws that were also too short,.....any ideas, thanks!

Don't hate on Canadian Tire just because they sell an abundance of cheap ricer mods.

that's the most complex simple fix i've ever read. Go to a honda dealer or acura dealer and shell out $5 for a set of screws. Or try a different car parts store, these screws can't be that hard to find
