Help with finding part to mount license plate!

Hey, just bought myself a 2011 G37x Sedan and it's great. I have a problem with mounting the license plate though.

The car came with rusty brackets as seen in the images below and for the time being I have no choice and I used some screws that don't exactly fit properly.

The plate is currently fastened but its kinda loose and I don't trust this as a long time solution.

Does anyone know what the part that I need is called and where I can get it?

Thanks for any help!

UPDATE: Part is called U-Nut, I got an M8 U-Nut with an M8 1.25 screw at Canadian Tire and it fit. Thanks to Hashim for telling me what the part was called.


Close up of "bracket". I need a screw to match this or a new kit containing both screw and bracket.

Zoomed out view of license plate mounting area.

those just look like common U-Nuts.. just grab some from the autoparts store/lowes...metric if you want to be consistent, probably M4 or M6 1.25 thread
