I know what you are talking about but not sure about the proper name. Captured nuts maybe? When I bought a new grill shell from LMC I also bought the hardware kit and all of thoses pieces where included.

U-nuts or J-Nuts.... Lowe's carries them if you need a few.
I have a small bucket of spare u-nuts and bolts as a result of my wrecking yard hunts. Other things I grab a plastic clips, carb return springs, engine block tags, wire loom clips on the valve covers, carb return springs, interior trim screws, sill plate screws, convoluted tubing clamps from GM F-bodies, wiper and headlight ***** and good switches.
