Default Side skirts mountig bolt broken

Hello everyone I'm preparing my car for a paint job. Today I tried to remove the left side skirt and a broke 3 bolts. They snapped pretty easy probably due to oxidation. My car didn't have a right side skirt installed, so I thought the previous owner maybe lost it. I brought one for the right and the problem it's that I have no mounting bolts left on the right side. Any idea how can I work this out? Tomorrow I'll post some pictures.

IIRC the stock nuts are hard plastic 8mm, right? You can buy all you need from 944online.com, or atleast you used to. I haven't looked in a long time.
