Where can I get them?
Got the full kit from Brendan which is great(well worth it if you're a bit OCD like me) but no bumper bolts which is a shame considering they're probably the most obvious bolts on the car and they all rust it seems. Cheers, David Land Rovers of all shapes S3 onwards… Daily is a 110 V8. |

ISTR buying a kit from eBay, because it was easy and they came with nice plastic covers for the bolt heads. I've just had a quick look and there are loads to choose from, including from site sponsor, MPS. Darren

Black plastic caps on the heads are surely all you need to tidy up the front end? Maybe with stainless washers if the orignals start to discolour.

If you really want a top job on the bolt heads painted. (If you don't get caps which I would)
Would be to mask off the heads, etch prime, top coat paint then. Ideally with a clear coat over that too. Then it won't flake! Trouble is get a ratchet on there and it's done for straight away. |

E-bay or similar is easiest. Or a fixings supplier, should be for the bolt size I.e. M10 cap.

Thanks, so they were never a genuine L.R. item?

Nope - never standard, but get yourself a selection pack and there's all sorts of bolts head, but more importantly nuts and exposed threads that they can cover and protect a little from corrosion especially if you pack them with grease or copperslip.
