I think this question came up in the past & I remember there was a part # there. I think it was in the General Discussion forum & it definitely was a while ago. I will try to look for it when I get home but no promises.

Check this page. I don't know which model you need but it's most likely one of these.
For a WJ but some info could be useful.

I picked some up from the dealer for my right front fender flare – BUT – I was told by the dealer that I need a special rivit gun as a normal one would crack the plastic rivits. Does anyone know if there is any truth to that? Andrew – I’ll check to see if there is a part tag on them but I'm pretty sure I just picked them up individually and put them in a brown bag.

For push rivets go to Lowes they have several styles of push rivets.

Yes you need a plastic rivit install tool as they require a longer stroke to set the plastic rivit and a larger barrel to accommodate the diameter of the rivit shank.

20 bucks from the above.

I see you already got hosed by the dealer for the rivits. I will see what the part number is from autobody supply on the rivits I have. They work fine, slightly smaller head although I think they had both sizes.

Both lowe's and HD have the Hilman? push rivets, as many times as I've had my flares on and off, I've only had to replace 2 of them
