That's not an answerable question. Length and diameter depend on the individual bolt. However, most small nuts and bolts on Japanese cars are M6. And for that matter, most little bolts are M6x15.

I love the look of that Cusco bar in flat black. That looks so tough. Good for you doing something different. It works.

You even painted the dipstick ring... excellent detail, Reggie.

Here's an engine bay idea... in my 6MT, there's only one relay in that entire huge relay caddy on the driver's side.

Get rid of it.

Dipstick loop cover and coolant overflow cap are both SS, from ZeeToyz. If you ask, he'll sell you stuff without the "Z" logo.

The washer fluid cap is also from ZeeToys, but gloss black.

The radiator cap is actually a cap "cover", from VMS. (ebay, amazon) Pretty high quality machining, IMO.

The oil cap is a common thing... ebay, amazon. Search "nismo oil cap". I just used my own custom decal, instead of the nismo decal.

All the fender washers are branded VMS (ebay, amazon).

All the button-cap bolts, both SS and polished titanium, are from DressUpBolts.com.
