you need to look for a fasteners supplier (nut and bolt shop) or try a model engineering shop as they usually have very small gauge nuts bolts etc

they will be at a guess 1.5 mm ....if you take badge to a model shop(one that specializes in proper motor driven r/c cars) they should have brass dome head nuts and bolts right down to 0.5mm dia ...so small it will not be that obvious that they are not rivets and non of that p1551ing about with two hammers or a badge tool (if you happen to have) ,but i'm sure they will have something if you prefer rivets
