Default Looking for engine cover clips

Hi all,

I removed my 2006 Crossfire's engine cover, and somehow in the process, I lost one of the clips under the cover. Now when I put the engine cover back on, it won't seal right, and my car runs terribly as a result. I've searched but I came up with nothing, so I'll ask some experts: Where can I get the clips/tabs that let the cover snap onto the engine? Please don't say I have to buy an entire new engine cover just for one metal clip...

Thanks in advance.

I believe if the cover is not fully engaged all around, it allows a leak at the MAF which causes crappy running. I made this mistake a few years ago when I was messing with the air filters and did not push the cover down all around.
