Stupid question: What size bolt on plastic skid plate?

Feeling lazy: I finally got a replacement skid plate, but don't have any bolts. Anybody know what the right size is?

Those are the small 10mm head bolts that you can find almost everyone on the car for fastening small stuff.. Sorry, don't know the thread pitch, but you can go in the engine bay, and pull one of the bolts from a bracket and try it. if it fits, take it to the hardware store and find another bolt to match it.

They are all 10mm flanges heads stock, so it's probably a 6mmx1.0 thread pitch.

10mm heads 6mm threads. Be sure to get the lock washers & regular washers that go along with the 6mm screws. I'd also get larger washers as well so you'll match the OEM bolt's washer width.

Just redid the plastic skid plate, underbody front corner panel bolts, nose bolts, OEM front lip bolts, etc..

Where did you get your skid plate? Mine is all broken up and I would like to replace it. Thanks, oh and how much was it?
