Inner Rear Spash Guard Question???

Could anyone please post up a picture of your inner rear splash guard? Im really interested in seeing what the bolt that attaches the guard to the rear bumper looks like in the wheel well. Now I know this sounds like a strange request but I just got my car out of the body shop and the screws they used to attach the splash guard just dont seem to be the correct ones.

Thank you in advance

I dont have an actual photo, but here is a parts illustration. Body Shops are pretty notorious for not wanting to buy oem hardware. I get it all the time from local shops "eh, we will just make something work...rather than paying $2 for a bolt"... its typical.

Awesome thnx... Maybe they did use the correct screws. I was just concerned scause the screws looked completely out of place. I would have expected mistsubishi to use like a black screw or something, because the ones they gave the body shop guys are chromed out . Awww well.

*Correction* They did not use the oem bolts after they told me they did... I finally did what I should have done in the first place. I took a little trip to ebay motors and looked at all the evos for sale photos. Sure enough the bolt should be a smaller black bolt, but instead I have a large chrome one. Oh well going back to the body shop tomorrow to get it all fixed. Thnx again.
