Can anyone tell me what kind of screw goes here?

Well, it looks like the dam moved before I snapped a good picture looking up the threaded nutplate. Anyway, the outermost fastener on the front air dam pieces is a threaded fastener that goes through the air dam and into a nutplate.

I could not see if it was threaded for a machine screw or self-tapper.

Does anyone know what kind of screw goes here? It's missing on both sides of the car.

1995 Mustang GT.

It uses the plastic pins on the rest of the holes, but the 2 outboard ones have a sheet metal nut there. I will probably just replace the sheet metal nut with a new one and then know the correct bolt to go with it.

Thanks for the advice!

If it's what I think, it's a threaded metric fastener (screw) that goes into a nutsert type flat plate fitting on the fender piece. Can't remember the size but might be a 6mm 1.0 pitch x 20-25mm.
