Does anyone know where I can buy new correct bumper bolts that are longer than the ones that are for sale now. My originals have a much more curved cap to them and are at least 1/4inch longer, I purchased new ones and they are too short for my 73 charger bumper and thick brackets. its impossible to install a new bumper needing the extra length, I had to use my old ones and polish the heck out of them . You can barely notice, its always nice to have new hardware, but you use what works.
 
I got mine from a local place Hiawatha Fasteners. I brought an old one in and matched the "look" of the bolt. Some are more rounded than flat.
In any case, they asked what length and I pretty much went with what was on the car. http://hiawathafasteners.com/pages/about-us
Their website says "serving New England states" but I don't see any address. Either way I am sure someone has bumper bolts in lengths.
Here is one place for example: http://www.clipsandfasteners.com/searchresults.asp?Search=bumper+bolts
 
Thank you! my originals did have a more rounded top than the reproductions...
