STB Bolts

I am having my STB painted and I would like to get some nice looking bolts when I put the brace back on. Does anyone know the exact size and any suggestions on places to get them?

IIRC, the size is M8 x 1.25 x 30mm. I got 6 stainless steel hex drive bolts and 6 stainless washers from the local hardware store, they look perfect.

You could get ARP bolts Nathan has all of the bolt sizes in the OP of his Cleaning up the Clutter in Our Engine Bay thread.

8mmx1.25 30mm in length. I got some black chrome ones from Ace Hardware. You could go to Home Depot, Lowes any hardware store should have some specialty bolts that size.

Go with Stainless

Here is a picture of mine before and after I had it painted with some custom machined washers.
