Well, I got a little tired of my rivets corroding along with the front bolts on the chin spoiler along with the bolt that holds the break line to the front motor mount. So... I replaced them with some zinc plated bolts (Couldn't find stainless in the sizes.)

Here's some pictures of it.





The bolt sizes I used for the rivet replacements on the chin spoiler was #12-24 x 1/2" along with some washers for a #10 bolt.

The front bolts on the chin spoiler and break line holding bracket was 1/4" x 1/2" with 5/16" lock washers.

Total price in the end for all of this was $2.00.
