Home depot bumper plugs

I've seen some guys on here use some plugs they got from home depot to cover the license plate holes on the front bumper. However I went to home depot and spent an hour looking around and could not find these plugs. Home depot is a big place when you're looking for such a small thing. Does anyone know in what section in home depot I might find these?

I went to Lowe's last month they don't know what I am talking about - a plastic black rivet.

Should be somewhere in the hardware department. Possibly the same isle with all the nuts and bolts.

The Lowes by us has these in the screw/bolt/nut isle. There's a big bank of drawers, several of which are dedicated to automotive fasteners. I found this out when I was looking for longer-than-stock plastic clips to attach the crappy $5 splash guards that were devised before any were available for sale. Look there.

That's where I found them for my TBSS. Make sure you measure the holes as there are plenty of sizes to choose from.

Forget Home Depot I never found them there, I even had 3 employees assisting me. Went to Lowe's found them in 2 minutes in the nuts and bolts section. For anyone else that want to do this you will need 1/2" plugs.
