ebay.
Also, even if you cant post in the market place, if you see something that you want, you can pm the seller and work something out, usually. People doing partouts all the time, youre bound to find something you need.
so, why is your evo missing a lot of random bolts and nuts, anyway?

Most random online hardware stores... Or local for that matter will have most all the generic metric sizes for half the cost. I wouldn't do dealership they want 5 bucks a bolt.

If you by from a hardware store likely wont get the bolts with attached washers/lock washers. Since most mitsubishi's all use the same bolts, just go to a junk yard with an electric impact, 10mm, 12mm, 14mm, and 17mm sockets. Then just go to town grabbing everything easy to get to.

Then if you are missing specific hard to find bolts, you should have a local ACE hardware with everything you need in metric, just not with the washers built on.

Yep find someone who has parted out a car and see if they have a bucket of bolts for sale.

If you get stuff from a hardware store make sure the grade/hardness is sufficient for the load it needs to handle.
