Stainless steel bolts guide

Not sure where this needs to go but ill stick it here anyways Please move Baz if you recon its beter an another forum.
Just recently bought me a load of stainless steel bolts to fit my fairing together when its all painted. So thought it might be an idea to let everyone know what sizes you need and where they go.
Im certain this will work out cheaper than a probolt kit too! But as i bought stainless bolts for other things as well i have no idea how much it cost just for the stuff for the fairing.
The following require M5 bolts with a 16mm length:
Upper infill panels (between frame and side fairing) X 6
Lower to Upper panel (where indicators are) X 8
Seat side panels (by brake light) X 2
Screen bolts X 8
Top tank panel X 2
The following require M6 bolts with a 16mm length:
Upper fairing (underheadlight) X2
Seat side panels X4 - 2 each side
Front mudguard (4 require nuts) X8
Infil panel by ZXR engine casing X2
Bolt to join panels (behind front wheel) X1
Rear Huger X4 - 2 each side and 2 will need to be cut down slightly as to not foul the chain.
Chain Guard X2
Screen brace X2
M6 25mm length:
Side fairing panels X6 - 3 each side
There are a few odd ones:
seat bolt which is an M6 but has to be 40mm long if you can find em and the third tank cover bolt (right by the headstock needs to be an M5 and 40mm, but a 35mm will do the job.
This is pretty much all you need, if theres anything ive left out say so and ill find out and ill edit accordingly
Cheers Jamz for the link!

Now you got all the sizes you need go order them from here or where ever. Highly recomended and fast delivery! These are the exact ones you need too! Ive not bothered with washers at the moment, but you may want to use some plastic ones to protect your paint around the bolt
And heres a few pics of the results, and yes they are new front and rear carbon huggers No pics of fairing yet, they havent been painted, they are last thing to be done too now, just gotta buy the paint and its all done! Then theres more to come when i finish uni
Hope this helps
