Why Should You Use A Dress-Up Bolt Kit?
Old engine bay bolts can make an otherwise clean build look unfinished. Rusty wings, slam panel fixings, brackets and trim bolts stand out quickly, especially after you have already spent time improving the bay.
The Exoracing M6 dress-up bolt and washer kit gives those visible fixings a cleaner finish. The anodised 6061 aluminium washer adds colour, the stainless countersunk bolt sits neatly in the washer, and the laser-etched Exoracing logo gives a tidy detail without needing a full engine bay rebuild.
M6 is one of the most common small fastener sizes in Japanese engine bays, and it is also used across many other vehicles. That makes this kit useful for bay dress-up, wings, covers, brackets, interior panels and boot trim where the original bolt size matches M6x1.0.
For a more complete Honda engine bay refresh, use these alongside the Exoracing titanium intake/exhaust manifold nut and stud kit, the Exoracing K20/K24 flush spark plug cover, or a matching Exoracing billet battery tie down.
Where Can I Use These Bolts?
| Area | Good use case | Check before fitting |
|---|---|---|
| Engine bay | Slam panel, covers, brackets and visible trim bolts | The original bolt must be M6x1.0 and close to 20mm long |
| Wings and exterior panels | Visible M6 panel bolts where a cleaner finish is wanted | Confirm bolt length and thread engagement |
| Interior and boot trim | Non-critical trim and bracket fixing points | Do not use on seatbelt, seat mount or safety-critical points |
| Honda bay dress-up | Pairing with radiator stays, battery ties and billet dress-up parts | Match the colour/finish to the rest of the bay |

Exoracing Dress-Up Bolt Kit Installation Guide
- Choose a visible non-critical M6 bolt location you want to refresh.
- Remove the original bolt carefully. If it is rusty, take your time to avoid snapping it.
- Confirm the original bolt thread is M6x1.0 and that a 20mm bolt length is suitable.
- If the thread is dirty or rusty, clean it first. Running a suitable tap through the thread can help achieve a cleaner install.
- Place the Exoracing washer over the hole with the logo facing upwards.
- Insert the supplied stainless countersunk bolt through the washer.
- Tighten carefully with the correct Allen key or Allen socket. Do not overtighten.
- Repeat for the remaining bolts and check the final finish from a few angles.

Frequently Asked Questions
Will these fit my car?
They will fit many vehicles that use M6x1.0 bolts in a non-critical dress-up location. Always remove one original bolt and check the thread, length and mounting point before ordering or fitting.
How many bolts and washers are included?
Each kit includes 8 anodised aluminium washers and 8 stainless steel M6 countersunk bolts.
Can I use them on suspension, brakes or seat mounts?
No. These are dress-up bolts for non-critical locations. Do not use them for suspension, braking, seatbelt, seat mount, engine mount or any safety-critical fixing.
What colour should I choose?
Choose a colour that matches the rest of your engine bay. Black and silver are subtle, red/blue/purple/gold stand out more, and neochrome suits a brighter show-style bay.
Can acidic cleaners damage the finish?
Yes. Avoid harsh acidic engine bay cleaners on anodised washers, as they can affect the finish over time.
Notes
- Only use where the original bolt is M6x1.0 and a 20mm length is suitable.
- Do not overtighten, as this can strip the thread or round the Allen key hole.
- Clean dirty or rusty threads before installing for the best finish.
- Do not use on safety-critical fixings.
