Re: Fender bolts 55-59
Almost all of them are 5/16 coarse x 1/2 or 3/4 length. If you want to get tricky(I did) you can go to a fastener place and get them in what's called a flange head bolt. I did lots of those from Fastenal and used the stainless button head ones, polished, where they showed like on the inner fender attaching points.

Re: Fender bolts 55-59
The factory ones have knurling on the face of the flange so they grip and do not need lock washers, kind of hard of paint. You can use a regular bolt with lock or flat washer and a dab of loctite.
