Default anyone used alternative Engine bay bolts?

i recently painted my engine bay, and i removed all the 10mm bolts that is used to hold up the fenders, hood hinges, headlights, and just about any other 10mm bolt in the engine bay.

after i painted it, i was going to reuse the original bolts, but their all mis colored and old looking. so i thought, well i'll paint em. and i went to install em and the paint was chipping

so....


i was at the autoparts store the other day, and i decided to pick up 2 boxes of the various sized bolts and washers that comes in a variety box for "asian" cars.

they look pretty good IMO, but has anyone used any alternative bolts that can be bought in masses?

There is a guy here on HT that sells nice anodized washers and whatnots. I believe it is Tegiwa brand or something like that.
