Be careful with plastic pop rivet replacement as not all rivets are the same length. For instance the plastic rivet for the front splashguard goes through two thicknesses of plastic before entering metal and is longer than a "standard" plastic rivet and has a different part number.
I bought some cheap plastic rivets off Amazon with the correct Nissan part number for the front splash guards but when they arrived they were the same length as the "standard" length plastic rivets.
Why did I buy 50 off Amazon when I only needed 2 OEM Nissan rivets? It was much cheaper.
