Default Plastic fastener question

Here is a picture of the screw, one each on the left and right sides that fastens the outer edges of the center part of the air dam. One of the plastic inserts that acts as a nut, is broken and so i cannot tighten the screw. Where can i source plastic fastener parts such as these? Thanks in advance for your help!
