ISO bumper cover rivets with the light rings on them.

I looked around and could not find any. I suspect the supplier changed how they are made.

It should not be too hard to replicate the look. Machining would require re-anodizing. Some light punch marks might be the trick.

I had a friend search for the correct rivets. No luck.  I also did some searching at SEMA vendors. Most people don’t get it. As any rivet will hold it on just fine.  Attached is what we typically find today.
