KW V2 top strut nuts

Where can I get these nuts or something similar?

I didn't receive them when I got my V2's (bought them used) and now a friend and myself are delayed from getting the coils on the car because of a few stupid nuts. And no the stock ones don't fit.

Damn that sucks! The seller didn't include it? Try contacting the manufacturer.

A hardware store? Maybe try Lowes, Home Depot, ACE, auto stores and such. Online, http://www.fastenal.com/web/home.ex is really good for hardware as well as http://www.mcmaster.com/# .....but you'd have to know what you need.

Also, it'd be worth a shot taking your shocks with you to places that install coilovers and asking them if they could give you or sell you the nuts that will fit on it.

I tried both ACE and Home Depot as well as a small local hardware store and neither of them have the correct nut for the strut. Online is not really an option because my car is sitting on jackstands at my buddy's house so I kinda need them today lol.

gotta try a good parts store, or a really good hardware store, not home depot. its a fine thread and if i remember right, the kw is standard thread, thats why you can't use the bmw nut

if home Depot and ace don't have it. You are SOL. Look harder at home depot? I find it strange that that won't have this part.

If it's for the rear shocks, I reused my stock nuts just fine(I think).
