front fender attachment + rust
I am in the process of swapping out front fenders, bumper and moulding from my s5 parts car onto my 88 gtu. Both bolts on my driver-side fender, on the bottom near the rocker panel, broke off from rust. In hindsight, I know I probably should have soaked all the bolts with WD-40 before taking anything off. Is there any way to remove the inserts the bolts screw into and replace them so I can attach my fender all the way? Sorry if this is a dumb question, I just didn't want to risk breaking anything else ( I kind of Hulk-Smash things more oft than not 
).
Thanks,
Mike

Should my mazda dealer carry them?
