Finally ready to put trim on, My car came with a basket of parts, I've got the trim pieces but no hardware. Does anyone know what type and size fastener is used to put these diecast trim pieces on?

I took a machine screw, cut the head off screwed it in, used self threading nuts to tighten it. Original was a stud. I can check and see what the thread was. Mine are waiting to be installed. Also will be putting some sort of foam over the stud to seal.

Foam, no, use something that actually seals.

Many, many uses.
 
As Terry said, screw and cut the head off. I would suggest aluminum so it does not rust as you know at very least some moisture will get to it.
 
I used stainless steel bolts (heads cut off) to attach these and the front C bezels.
 
Some Loctite should do the job
I wouldn't worry too much about the material for the stud.
Mine has only seen rain about 3 times in the past 20 years.
But sure stainless would be the premium option.

I found what I needed, #8x32 machine screw. Thanks.
 
I stated aluminum but meant stainless, thanks for that correction.
