Bolts?
I got myself a new air dam but i don't know what type of bolts &/or nuts to be using to install it. What is the appropriate hardware that came stock for this?

Re: Bolts?
Should be the M8 or so "screws" with the 10mm head I believe. It's about 15mm long. They sell them in the "HELP" section in the auto parts stores. They thread into those metal clips. It uses machine screw threads, not sheet metal threads.
Someone should be able to get you a picture here eh...?

Re: Bolts?
A good hardware store, one with a well stocked fastener section will have the clips ,"speedy nuts" is what theyre called, and the factory style bolts. Ive purchased both the speedy nuts and the bolts several times at True Value. Auto parts stores rarely have a decent fastener selection.

Re: Bolts?
I may be spoiled. Parkrose True Value here in Portland has the best fastener selection I have ever seen in one location. They have just about any style of fastener you might need in almost any size combination you could dream of.
