Default Buying 6 rear lca bolts from acura, they want $50...any alternative suggestions

I'm going to replace the rear LCA's, so I thought it would be a good idea to have fresh bolts to throw on. I called the dealership to get prices...
they said I need four of one kind of bolt and two of another kind:
all together coming out to $50 for the six bolts

anyone have an suggestions for a cheaper alternative, or will I just have to spend the $50, and be done with it.

I dont think your gonna lose any show points for dirty over clean bolts in your lca's.

Free (junkyard) vs. $15 (Hardware store) vs. $50 (Dealership)

well for me it wasnt the clean or not factor. i mainly changed them so incase i have to change my suspension later on the bolt wont get stuck in there.. i mean honestly 1.29 each for the extra safety.
