Good questions> :-). I took a sample to lowe's and was able to find the batwing fasteners in specialty auto fasteners and for the under tray I found some in just regular metric stuff. That is what I would recommend.

Why not just dump the OEM fasteners and use, say, dzus fasteners or other aircraft fasteners, preferable ONE size and type for ALL the batwing attachments?

Dang. Want me to mail you one from the batwing? The under-tray ones are the same as all the others under the car. 10mm head, not sure about the thread pitch. Could mail one of those to you as well. Ask that kid that is there with the silver car.

Forgot about Erik. I'll do that. Thanks for the offer though.

I might look into dzus fasteners, but I don't want to go through the trail and error at the moment. I need expediancy for now. Eventually, when i go to an AIR splitter, I'll use them though. But, when i do that, I'll have my body shop guy do the mods/paint and install. Good Idea though. I have access to all of them that I will need as well. E
