You guys cost me money$$$$$$$. Never replaced mine, but I figure 40 bucks is cheaper than a new front end.

If you buy new ones from Porsche could you post a photo of them? I have no idea if these are stretch bolts or not but I do know that any coated fastener (ex. Dacromet, Geomet NOT Precote thread locker) is considered by Porsche to be a one-time use bolt because of corrosion issues. So it will be interesting to see what they are selling now.

On the left are new front bolts that didn't fit, so I put in the old ones. On the right are used rears.

The new bolts that I put in are identical (in appearance) to the original bolts. I still use blue loctite on them.
