Front spoiler brackets on bumper

Are these brackets available... Or is a matter of drilling out a good one from a trashed front bumper and riveting it back in.

Available but not cheap for what they are, and the backing plates are NLA new. Worth the 30 minutes to drill and re-rivet them.

As per ROB, The rusty bits —^ are available new. Those are the parts that seem to break/rust. The backing plates are reusable and/or the shape isn’t critical: you can make them yourself if you have to.
You could also drill them all out and re-plate everything so that it’ll last for another 20-30 years. (And, there, I just found myself more stuff I have to replate...)
