Rotted VIN Tag Replacement

there was a guy who had the all the correct stamp dies and was making tags and factory identical plates for almost everything and he has since retired. he had a website up for years so it was all legal. he told me wont do any tags for expensive classics like hemis and copos because someone cloned a hemi on him and he got in a little hot water for it. the story about the cuda was in hemmings. seller got caught for faking a letter from galen govier and thats what unraveled it
 
Anyone know of the right type of rivet to reattach the tag on the firewall? Mine is hanging on by one rivet
 
I thought someone (or a few someones) were selling Blank VIN plates which I'm sure for illegal purposes on the internet? Maybe they got shut down? I just Goggled "Blank VIN plate" and a Lot popped up, CarId sells them so I guess selling the plates aren't illegal so why not use one?
The blank VIN plate is easy to reproduce. Its the embossed dies that are hard to find.
I have a stamp set but embossing is different

I came across a company in Europe that does the embossing if you send a blank plate but he does that for machinery plates and wont do automotive vehicles.
 
15 bucks a rivet?! Biden got to those too? JK.
Thanks. I'll look them up. Anyone know if you need a special tool to install them?
