Need specs on screws used for grill
I am putting a stock grill back on my 1982. I have the verticals and horizontals but no screws. The bottom horizontal is plastic, so I am guessing it may not be the same as the others??? What are the specs on the screws for the aluminum horizontals and what are the specs for the screws for the plastic horizontal? Were there washers or bolts/screws with integrated washers in the screw heads? I have the bolts for mounting the verticals to the frame and bumper. Thanks!

If they are what Tony pointed out, attached is what it looked like when I did this on my white 86.5.
Is yours an S model (front spoiler), like on mine? (after re-looking at my pictures - it may not matter whether it is an "S" model)
PET via the Porsche site shows them to be similar between 86 and 82. Pic of 86 PET, below. The specs on the 82 says:
Item 16: "desk pad" - 2 required
Item 17: Oval Head Screw M 4 x 15 (mine are hex head) - 9 required
Item 18: Item Washer A 4,3 (which I believe means 4.3mm washer) - 9 required
I ordered these parts, using the PET numbers, from 928 International and received hex head bolts, threaded clips, and washers like in the picture.
Also shown are the plugs I removed from the underbody to get access. A view of under the bumper with some of the bolts in place is also shown.
I hope these help! Whereabouts are you in Tampa? I am in the Odessa/Keystone area.

Anyone know what size these are?
Or an aftermarket supplier in zinc?
I'd like to replace as many screws/washers throughout the whole 928 as i can in yellow chromate zinc at aftermarket prices..
