i know, I am sorry, I had almost all the bolts, I ordered the bolts and they were stolen from my mailbox, we have been having alot of problems here with damn kids breaking into cars/houses, running over trash cans and steeling mail.
i called the company, they gave me a refund but would not send me anymore bolts, they said they didnt want to lose anymore money and to find someone else to get the bolts from.
There is a local vendor I found out the other day. Ace doesnt have all the bolts i need.
My car is currently taken apart because I am chainging my air conditioning compressor, Radiator and fans. Once it is all back together, I will take a pic. I just need 2 more blts for above the headlight. I went above and beyond and replaced all the bolts on the timing cover as well. I spent more than what the kit costs but I have twice as many bolts too.
I am getting married on friday and wont be able to work on the car until i get back on the 18th. I promise I will have pics up that week once it is done. It aggravates me that I started something and now it just looks like a bomb went off in the front of my car.

I took some pics today as a matter of fact of the engine bay during the car show I was in. I will post the engine pics up tomorrow.
By the way, I placed Best in Show, Battle of the Imports Orlando

There are still a couple of bolts I need to get that I am missing, I however am in Hawaii and my car is in Florida so this is not necessarily priority. My car is being tucked away for 3 years while I am there. When I get back, I will add the bolts and some other things to dress up the motor.
Here is what the car looks like.

Thanks, I need to take an overhead view of the engine bay to show all the bolts to get a better idea for everyone but this pic will do for now.
ACE hardware has chrome bolts as well, that is where I filled in what I was missing.
