Im going to pull my nearside and offside front fenders/wing panels off for repairs, and one has already sheared off, i was wondering if anyone on here, happens to know what size bolts and thread pitch hold them in before i get the wing off and none of the fixings out due to seizing. I dont have access to the car for another month, so its not being lazy, i just want to order some replacement fasteners in advance. Thanks.

I know theyre m6 and i think the pitch is 1.0 that ls what i used when i out my feed arches on and they were ok and i ordered a bunch of different lengths

Make sure you get the ones with wide washers built into them

I've just done the same, are they flanged bolts or ones with captive washers?

I'll go take a pic and get my Verniers out. Give me ten minutes

Yeh you are right it's flange heades with a captive washer.

Hope this helps

I used these and they hold down good you can always use cup washers with them to spread the load a little bit more
