Is there a good online source for the little bolts used to hold on the rally wheel center caps?

They are a mate finish and have a little cut and taper on the threads.

Is there a good way to fix a slightly wallowed out bolt hole on the rally rim?
 
I've used normal bolts before to hold the caps on. If I recall there is another set of holes you can orientate the cap?
 
I personally don't think those screws were long enough from the factory. Yes, they obviously worked when new, but after removal some of them just won't pull tight again.

I'd recommend a stainless bolt of the proper length. Do all of them the same.

Are they a finish, or are they painted argent like the silver of the wheel? I know part of the center caps are sprayed with something to tone them down too, not sure if it's the same or not.
 
Does their finish match the "subdued" finish on the center cap too?

I'm not sure if all were the same way for all years, but I know that the whole center cap was not bright chrome, part of it was coated with something that made it visually clash less with the wheel. As I recall it was at least the flat portion that the screws tightened against.

Accidentally started removing it before I figured out it wasn't just dirt or corrosion.
