Angry HKS Exhaust HELP / Feedback

Just took shipment on my used HKS Hi-Power Ti. ( Good condition!) I have NO usable gaskets, and system is missing some bolts ( including washers, nuts etc.)

* I called HKS they will NOT sell me the bolts, the WILL sell gaskets (6) BUT only through a retailer. They recommended 2 shops. I called them and they told me they would call HKS for a price and get back to me, so far nothing.

1. What can i do to get proper bolts. Apparently the HKS bolts are of high quality and I want the same in a replacement.

2. Gasket are looking like they are going to be a hassle.
Are they needed?
What can i get to replace them if HKS falls through?

I appreciate any help. I am so close to finishing a recent upgrade to my car and this was the last piece.

*** Also any feedback, or thoughts on your HKS are WELCOME.

Thanks, ALL!!

Just get some grade 8 bolts that fit or some stainless bolts (pricey... but worth it). As far as the gaskets I believe you can just go to a napa or another auto parts store for them they are common gaskets. Just measure the flange and you should be able to match them up.

buy the knock off exhaust and use the gaskets and bolts, it would be the same price as buying the genuine HKS gaskets and bolts.
