I have been losing the pins that hold the underbody, wheel well, and bumper panels in place. They're designed to break off in the event of an impact so that the panels themselves don't break, but they shouldn't be falling out. I've bought 3 different types from AutoZone, and the closest ones they have (when comparing dimsions) fall out too easily.

TL;DR: where can I get some OEM body clips?

for years, every time the black push pins fall off my cars, I replace them with a red plastic wall anchor. You probably have them around the house. Get the right size (one that slides in only a short distance) and then take your hammer and tap it in the rest of the way so the plastic grabs the metal. This of course only works if your pin was going into a metal body like where the under engine skirt attaches to the frame. It won't do any good if the black push pin was only securing something plastic to a non rigid plastic body. Every dealer carries replacement black push pins if you get desperate.

If worse come to worse, you can always use varying size black zip ties for some of the spots. Will work just as well, will be out of sight, and a whole lot cheaper.

I tried different ones from Auto Zone and Advanced Auto with no luck, then I took one of the originals to NAPA and compared it to their Big Book of Clips and found the exact match. Problem solved.

I make KITT222 find them for me.
