Forgive me i may deliver this wording wrong

Bought aftermarket Bushwacker fender flares
Bushwacker rivet style (I believe)?

Where can I source all new quality (not chinese SS) stainless hardware , and inner parts to install them?? I know I can goto a hardware store and fudd around to solve it but want a simple kit

I did not buy them from this outlet, and I want Stainless

Im gutting the old OEM and tossin it

Not a fan of stainless steel if you are putting it into mild steel fasteners like the rivnuts in your body panels. They gall easily and make removing impossible. I see you live in a salty road environment and I’ve not experienced a vehicle in that, but I have dealt with ss a lot and it stinks. At least antiseize the devil on the threads if you go with ss.

I bought stainless riv nuts and hardware on Amazon. I bought a bunch and have been trying to standardize sizes as I convert things...like the gas tank skid...fuel filler neck. Get some stainless fender washers too.
