Default No drill sliders bolts

I bought a used F4i that has no drill frame sliders on it. Well one isn't mounted properly, its missing the bolt that holds the fairing to the frame if that makes sense. They are set up with a bolt that bolts the fairing to the frame, that bolt is hollow in the center and tapped for the slider bolt to thread into. Well sense that bolt is missing and they just put the slider bolt into the frame, the slider is buttedon the fairing and rubbing through the graphics. I was wondering if anyone knows where to get one of these bolts so i can get these mounted correctly? I will get a picture up soon, I know I probably didn't explain this very well but hopefully someone with experience with these knows what I'm talking about.

if its the sliders (if you can call it that) that I am thinking of trash em n buy the right bolts for the fairings. Those things will snap off at the bolt if its more than just a tip over.

Well like I said, I would get rid of them, but the one is currently covering up the rubbed through graphics and paint on the fairing so I really dont want to remove it.

Thats what insurance is for. They rape me enough on it so I mine as well get the benefit to use it if something happens.
