thanks for you help, but i have a welder and can make them as, well but i figured it would be better to get real one then make them. if kawasakikid can't get them for me i'll just make them. Thanks anyway.

well thanks any way. I think it's kinda stupid that they aren't availible very easily, and even more that metric bolts are like 6 times more than american bolts. guess i'll either weld some up or get a set of stainless ones and paint em black.

Where did you get the 1200f clear paint for your engine covers? Highest I can find is only to 200f.
