      "Button Head " bolts for fender

      I'm looking for some of the "Button Head " bolts to put in the front fenders of my '69 Camaro .
      Because it has been lowered and there is a clearance issue with the outer edge of the tire.
      Currently , there are no bolts in the center three holes.
      ( It was that way when I bought the car )
      Isn't there a company that sells a kit ?

      I can always go round them up at the hardware supply store , but I'm looking for a kit for convenience .

      I bought a kit from Frank & Lisa @ Prodigy Customs/GP Superstore. They sell a complete body kit so you'll have to ask if they can sell separately.
      I'd give them a call first and if they don't have what you need you can also try Totally Stainless.

      any decent hardware store will have stainless button head bolts, 1/4, 5/16 and 3/8 covers about the hole front of a camaro or any chevy car.
      the whole kit from frank is nice, but if you only need a few go local

      Jake is right, if you only need a handfull, go ahead and pay Ace Hardware $1.50 a bolt. But if your doing the entire car, we do 650+ pieces including all the clips for $239 which is .40 piece or so including the clips.

      Jeff, all you need for those few bolts is 5/16 X 18 X 3/4 button head

      if you have a clearance issue, look at "elevator bolts" they have a lower crown than a button head.
