Hi Guys....

Anyone have the front guards and bottom apron bolts. They have an unusual course thread compared to the door hinge bolts.

I basically need the total amount to do both front guards and apron.

Not sure if the FB - EK models are similar or not.

Hope someone has some laying around, looking for a new home.

cheers

When I had to get replacements I headed down the hardware store and pickup up some 1" coach bolts, be careful to pick ones with thread all the way up to the head though. The ZP polishes up nicely too.

I can also supply originals if you want genuine.
I would charge $10 for enough to do the whole car.
If you're not worried about originality then I would 100% agree to go with the Commodore bolts as well, simply because you can get them new.

Hi Ken.....

Sounds good to me. ... you have a deal.

I need enough to do the two guards and the front apron....under the radiator.

Can you include enough bolts to fasten the four doors to the hinges.

Let me know how much in total(including postage).... via PM.

You in Sydney or close enough for pickup...otherwise Aussie Post.


cheers
