Default Help finding fender hardware!

I am desperately looking for the pins which go in the front of the front fenders, where the nose clips onto (next to the headlight. Mine snapped during my hood installation (don't ask) and now I need to locate new ones.
I have looked everywhere, but with no luck. If anyone has any ideas where to get them, I would appreciate it. I can always rig something up if I have to, but I would rather not.
Thanks for the help.

Call Kevin at partstaxi.com or Gene or Patrick at gmpartshouse.com I think would be the most successful. Good luck.

Default pins

GM Part # 11561329 cost about $4.38 ea. Any chevy dealer can get them for you. I have 2 in hand, but do not want to sell them. Good luck

My understanding is that there are 2 pins per side, 4 pins total.

Are they all identical?

They appear to be identical and I believe I only have one per side. The front nose basically snaps down over them by the headlight.

You are correct, I've had my bumper off a few times and that's all I've ever noticed.

Placed order with Gene yesterday. Good group to work with. Knew exactly what I was looking for. Also was looking for other parts that I had to "describe" and they again knew what I wanted. Also, the prices were very good.

Yet another example of Gene coming through.
