Your local auto parts store should have push on clips that will work.
I'm with showcrop on the paint.
If you're painting a show tractor, that's another story, but if you just want to make it look decent go with the off the shelf enamel.
It's a one step process, you paint it and you're done.
Heck, you can brush it on if you want to it will still look better and help prevent rust. My hand isn't steady enough to brush paint!
The base coat/clear coat stuff I paint cars with is no where near as neat and forgiving. Go look at your brand new car/truck in the sun, the paint texture from the factory will look like an orange peel.
If you have bare metal, prime it. If you have loose paint, take it off and then prime it. If you paint over it the old paint will continue to peel and take the new paint with it.
Wish I could still buy laquer paint and do all that wonderful wet sanding.
