Question FD Nuts on FC Intake assembly

I've noticed that the nuts to the FD Intake assembly are different (acorn?). I'd like to know If they fit on our Intakes. Really, this question comes out of the book of "who cares" but just curious.

Wouldn't "carbon fiber" nuts look even cooler?

Sorry, couldn't help myself...

I can send you those FD nuts if I can find them as I used stainless nylocks.

Metric hardware is $$ here in the land of "standard".

Haha, Carbon fiber. The big craze these days. The look of the FD nuts would compliment my recently sandblased and Clearcoated s5 TII Intake Manifolds, I guess. Thanks RETed.

Found the 4 nuts. I can't remember having the bolt or even what the 3rd gen bolt head looks like.

PM me your addy and I will get those out to you as soon as I can.

I'd Imagine the Bolt heads aren't anymore elaborate than that of the FC's. So, It's the 4 nuts Is what I'm looking for.
