Hey guys I'm trying to figure out what the bolt size and thread pitch is for the rear bumper cover bolts. If anyone knows it would be greatly appreciated. I don't have any original bolts to take up to Lowe's or Advance to match them up. Thanks guys.

Just pop your hood and borrow on of the bolts from your front bumper cover and take it to Home Depot or where ever is closest to match it up. -------------------- taking too long to mod since '09

the problem with that is there are 3 different sized holes that need bolts and the smallest could be a 6 or 8 and I'm not sure where I could locate something that small on the car. Ran into the same problem with the front bumper. My front bumper is held on with one bolt and numerous zip-ties. When I originally got the car it had a molded body kit so when those pieces came off there were a lot of absent screws. I'm not sure why the shop would do that. Anyways thanks for the suggestions. I'll see if I can round up a bolt that will fit.
I know that its not: 6x1.25, 8x1.25, 10x1.25, or 12x1.25 -------------------- |

The bumper covers are held on by a kind of captive bolt system.....a shaped metal plate runs up the wing with 3x M6/1.00 bolts (metric course) attached to it. But if this captive bolt thingy has been removed/lost then as long as the bolt and nut are the same then any bolt will do that will fit through the holes

The front bumper cover has the same bolts (at the connection point between the cover and fender) as the rear does (at the connection point between the rear cover and the quarter panel).

Why are there dozens of question marks in the title of this thread? Is the question mark key on your computer keyboard broken or are you deliberately trying to make the forum look untidy?
