FL Front End Mask Help!!

I finally got around to putting on my Front End Mask that I ordered from Rosenthal Mazda. I've installed a couple car bras before but never with this problem. The snap head screws that came with the bra were softer than the metal in the speed nuts(clips) used to replace the factory fasteners under the wheel-wells. Only one screw was able to fasten properly and at least 3 of the screws were ruined when they were stripped (threads knarled) after they got started in the speed nuts. The end result is that I can't get replacement screws anywhere!! My local mazda dealer wants me to buy a new bra. I looked online and all I can find are these (which cost as much as a new bra!!!) Snap Head Fasteners

Any suggestions either replacement fasteners or alternate ways to attach the bra?

Thanks!!

I ended up getting the little snap head screws on ebay. I think it was about $10 for 50. The next online dealer I could find only sold them in packs of 500, and that was expensive.
