Default brackets and rivets for batwing belly pan

So I just recently got a 86 and the batwing is not correctly mounted. It seems the riveted hardware (3) is gone. I have since located a hardware kit on ebay however its the complete hardware kit. I'm only wanting the three brackets and I don't want to spend $125 for the whole thing. I also found anther place amnworks selling a hardware kit for $23 however it doesnt include the brackets I need for the actual batwing.

Does anyone know where these brackets that get riveted on can be had? Thanks for the help..

They don't sell just the L (3) brackets that are riveted on the plastic batwing. They do sell what I need in a kit on ebay however its like $90 and it comes with all other hardware.

http://www.ebay.com/itm/222053935850...xe=exe,ext=ext its the brackets to the left of the rivets.

Last night I was about to buy the kit they have when I discovered the pic says comes with everything but what I need. Which is the three l brackets that are riveted to the wing itself.

Ian's price for that hardware kit is f***ing crazy. Arnnworx FTW

As for the brackets...In all seriousness you could probably modify something from the Home Depot shelf/drawer hardware section to work there. They sell pre-drilled angle brackets for stuff...

Yeah, it's very easy to find a bracket or something else at the hardware store. I used a metal fence material which comes in a roll and you just cut off the exact length you need with wire cutters. It has holes and slots all along to allow an infinite choice of mounting holes for the OEM screws/bolts. It's exactly the same width as the OEM brackets and has alternating round holes and oblong holes. I can't remember exactly what it's called but it worked perfectly and it's super cheap, like less than $5. And if your car is less than perfect as they almost always are under there, you can lengthen the bracket to meet your car's needs. It's not as pretty as factory but it's cheap, works well and stays put. I did mine years ago and haven't touched it since.
