Default Help with Roush Louvers (this is an odd one)

To all of you with Roush louvers on your quarter windows, I've got a question. What do the screws look like? yea, it's a goofy question, I bought the louvers and took them to the body shop to get painted. I took the screws too, so they would paint the heads so they wouldn't stick out so bad. They lost the screws, so I'm needing new ones. If someone could maybe take a picture of the head and possibly tell me how long they are it'd help a lot. I thought they were a very small socket head cap screw, but in the back of my mind I'm thinking button heads as well. So, lets see those screws!

I did call Roush to see what they had to say. Thecustomer service guydidn'thave a clue what the specsare and I'm not going to buy a new mounting kit when all my brackets and everything are fine. The cost to buy one and ship it to me would be rediculous when I could just go to a local hardware store or a Fastenal store and pick the screws I need up.

Tell the paint shop that lost them that THEY need to get new OEM fastners
from Roush or buy the Louves from you for what they cost you. Then take
the $$ you were refunded and start all over again and get new Louvers with
the fastners from Roush and stay away from the shop that lost them in
the first place. Seems like a no brainer to me.

I kinda figured they'd lose them too after a while, they've had the louvers since christmas, they've been storing parts for me since we decided to do the car all at once instead of pieces. I'm getting a little help from Ford due to a problem with the front bumper, so painting stripes, the louvers, and a chin spoiler will be partially paid for by them, (the shop owner is a buddy, so its a REALLY good price) That's why I'm not really going to raise hell with them for losing them. I'm just as much at fault for leaving them there for over 6 months. New screws are not that big of a deal, should be a couple bucks if that, I may even have them in my cabinets at work, I just don't know the correct length or head style.

I just tried to take a pic, but I couldn't get it to show very well (cheap camera). Anyway, they are an allen head screw, flat on the top. If I remember right, they were only about 1/4"-3/8" long. I would take your little clips to the hardware store with you to make sure you get the size and threads right. Good luck...
