Rear Bumper Insert/ Rocker Panel Fasteners?

Hey everyone, I've been trying to put an 06' GTO back together and it seems like I end up coming to a lot of dead ends when it comes to little parts.

The last couple things I need are the rear bumper insert and the rocker panel fasteners. Now, with the insert, are the fasteners just the little push pins, or are they screw in style push pins? Went to a few hardware stores and also auto zone trying to find some push pins that would work. The ones I picked up were no good. The OEM ones on gmpartshouse.com I think were about $3.50 a piece.

Now on the rocker panel, it appears that those push pins that go underneath the vehicle are very shallow. Wasn't able to find anything in stores that looked like it would work and didn't see a listing on gmpartshouse.com

Have any of you ran into these problems before? Any ways out other than buying the fasteners from the dealer? Any help would be great, thank you

Yeah, Soooooo, any ideas? Or at least, can someone tell me what type and/or size these fasteners are?
