And i want them in black

They are the fairing bolts with the built in shoulder. I don't want the thread all the way up to the head as you they fuck up the fairing panels if you tighten them up to much. If you don't tighten them up then they fall out.
I want to replace every fairing bolt on the bike with black bolts preferably anodized. I know you can buy normal bolts in black but they do not have the shoulder.
Thanks

cant see the pic on my lappy, but assume its something similar. The stand off shoulder id just use Triumph fairing washers glued in place, or something similar

Probably advisable to have "Safe Search" ON

Mmmm - no shoulder = splintered plastics methinks

not if you use a rubber washer with rubber encased nuts. They'll look nice and wont fall off. Splintered plastics! They don't need to be he-man tight..

Should have bought them from me, I'm a Pro-bolt dealer and am knocking 5% off their price for all the forums I'm on.

Would love to, but haven't the money for that level of advertising yet, still at the 'handing-out-bits-of-paper-at-bike-meets' level.

As of last week
Now then, Mr. Paddy, (and Aladin, for your stealth Falco!) I think I have what you need. All from Pro-Bolt, so top quality kit, includes my 5% discount on their prices:
Alloy Fairing Kit Aprilia SL Falco 1000
All the bolts to replace original visible fasteners on side fairings, front mudguard, belly pan, seat unit and nose cone where applicable. Kits are easy to use - remove one bolt at a time, and insert an identical length Pro-Bolt in to your original backing clip. Where this is not possible we include appropriate nuts. Should you wish to replace any worn original receptacles they are available to order separately. Our Aluminium dome head fairing bolts are made from Grade 7075 which is an incredible 60% lighter than your originals. Also included in the kit are Pro-Lube, anti-scratch washers and the relevant allen keys. Instructions are provided for torque settings. Please note screen kits are sold separately.
Available in Black anodised aluminium £24.64
Combine this with:
Aluminium threaded collar, handy collars for use where original bolt has shoulder, these can be used with our bolts to act as a shoulder.
3mm high £0.19 each
5mm high £0.25 each
6mm high £0.29 each
Postage £2.99
