so i just got an AMAZING deal on an oem carbon fiber hood.

i couldnt wait to put it on so i just got home and took my hood off.

when i put the cf one on, the bolts went in but wouldnt screw. i thought stripped or no threads, but there are threads.

my stock bolts are just ever so thinner than the threads on the hood. anyone else have this problem, or know how i could get an accurate size of a bolt so i dont have to bring the hood to home depot tomorrow.

one more thing.. any certain bolts i should get, to avoid rust/breaking bolts?

thanks alot guys
