This may get moved but I'll start here.

Just bought a chrome brake resivour cover and it didn't come with screws. The black ones from the original just don't look right to me and after looking all over Dahlonega, Ga. for some I realized I need to widen my search.

Anyone know where to go for metric chrome screws?

I used some acetone on a rag and polished the screw heads. Came out nice enough.

definately can find them at ACE hardware in both standard and metric. They have a pretty decent sized selection. They keep it locked up at my ACE I guess theres been too many chromosexual abductions

The ACE Hardware stores here only carry chrome in standard. I've checked several. Checked a few other hardware stores as well. All standard. They carry metric but it's just the black steel.

Buy a stainless steel one to fit and hit it on a buffing wheel shines right up.
