Default VeilSide Underwings Help - What size screws needed for mounting???

Have a set of Veilside underwings that did not come with hardware. Does anyone know what size screws I need to attach them? They should be the same size as the stock Nissan ones, just longer. Went to home depo and I can't seem to find anything that comes close. Any sugessions on getting these badboys mounted up would be great?

Hey bro, I simply used the stock bolts with some 3M double sided tape and mine have stayed secured for several years now. My stock bolts were long enough to work with my Veilside underwings, but maybe the replica's are thicker?

I used the stock bolts when I mounted mine. It should fit.

Now, there is a washer with the stock bolt, I take it use that too? Seems like I need something longer, but I guess I will give it a try.

Had the car up on a lift today, I def couldn't make the underwings work with the stock bolts. There's just not enough screw left. I dunno, anyone using aftermarket screws or can give me the exact size of the stock screws, pitch, tread, etc.

I got them at Ace
Take one of the stock ones down there and they will have them.
Sorry, but I forgot the damn size, but I think they are #12 sheet metal screws, and they have a few different lengths.
