Default 6LE Splitter Question

I just bought a 6LE front splitter for my Camaro but my friend had misplaced the bolts for it... So I was wondering does anyone know what all I need. I emailed 6LE but I think there out for the weekend & Id like to get it installed this weekend.

All of the bolts? Do you have any of the kit for it? Or the instruction sheet? It shouldve had the list on there. A lot of 10mm bolts 2 inches long. Like 26 10 mm washers. Spacers and the three in the front are a different size too. Honestly if I were you I'd wait to hear back lol

If he hasn't changed the design from back when he first designed them, just get some through bolts that look about the same size. A little bigger will not hurt, I wouldn't go smaller, though. It's been over 3 years since I installed mine, so I can't remember offhand, but 10-12mm sounds right. You have to drill anyway...

Ik the one in the middle is 13mm now that I think about it. You need spacers. I think the middle ones are 1 inch spacers. Then half inch then quarter inch.

8 and 10 x 50

You need 8 of the smaller and three of the bigger. Easiest thing to do is just take one of your stock 10mm bolts to a hardware store, get 8 bolts of the same pitch/thread that are 1-1.5" long...

Aren't the T/A splitters cut differently than the Camaro ones?
If so, you should sell me the T/A one.
