I know how to find a part that's on the car, but how do I find a part that is part of an accessory? I need to find the "fender nut" and "snap screw" for my hood bra. Took it off and lost one of each. I have a 1000mi+ road trip on Friday so if anyone can help, thanks in advance.

you could go to the stealership they might have the part. why not just cover up the car in blue tape for the road trip

use painters tape man. thats what hes referring to as blue tape. it doesn't leave any sticky residue that tape leaves over.

Yeah the blue tape stays on pretty well i covered up a few cars with the blue tape i did 100+ with an x5 on highway 5 for a few min and the blue tape stayed on pretty well. Also you get some pretty interesting looks while driving with blue tape on.

It's also good to put some tape on the side mirrors they tend to pick up a lot of bugs
