Gold anodized nuts and bolts
 
I would like to buy gold anodized metric nuts and bolts 6mm 8mm 10mm etc dia, any length, that Toyota used to use. I would like to replace any many as I can on my 83. The gold color is long gone. I don't know if todays new asian manufacturers use them anymore? Maybe you dealer guys can throw any extras together. Aftermarket anybody know? Google search turns up no suppliers. Yea, I know this is stupid. Thanks.

I am replating all the bolts for my '83 full restoration. First zinc then a yellow chromate solution. I'll try to get some pics once its done

McMaster Carr or dealer
You are not going to find a "kit"
If you want then you are going to have to do the leg work.

I'm doing them by myself. I already bought all the plating equipment to do these. It was a few hundred bucks though for a smaller setup. I had been looking into this for a while and had originally gone to a shop but they wanted 300 to do the small lot I had and they were just going to ship it to someone else anyway because they only did things like chroming in house. The people I found online were non-responsive and only one or two of them had the capabilities to do yellow zinc plating.
