Wheel arch trim clips

Hey guys,
I had a loose wheel arch trim (front driver). I pulled it off and most the clips are damaged. Where can I locate the correct ones? I looked on Ebay and a google search and none of the results look like the same clips when comparing to the passenger side (underside of the hood).
Do I need to go to the mini dealer?
Thanks

Your clip is at ECS Tuning: https://www.ecstuning.com/b-genuine-...h/07132757821/

Use realoem.com to find all the part numbers for your car. Just enter the last 7 characters of your VIN.

On the black menu bar is a link called Vendor Directory. The vendors are the guys who have all sorts of parts and pieces for the MINI community.

I've found that partsgeek.com has a huge number of parts for the Mini. I've seen these clips on their site.

I had to pull the arches for a project and they pretty much deteriorated. I ordered all new ones and re-installation was much better. I forget if I ordered from ECS or Pelican (sorry!), because I split my business between these two wonderful companies.
