this may be a stupid question but what are they? They look to be reinforcement bars for the core support to fenders....

You have the factory bars. Here's what they where designed to do.I use this to take there place.As for the bolts hopefully the person that toke those off left the bolts under the car when the removed those bars.



The RMR Lower Control Arm Brace is a replacement for the 2 weak factory bars that spread across the front lower sub frame. Mitsubishi put braces there to help with handling under acceleration as the sub frame tends to spread. Our brace is stronger then the factory units giving more control and less chassis/sub frame. flex. Also, when installing any aftermarket down pipe, the removal of the factory units is a must. Our brace allows room for the larger aftermarket down pipes.

The stock bolts have a 14mm head; I don't know what their actual thread size is, but I'm pretty sure they're fine thread. I would go to the hardware store and buy an M8x1.0 and M10x1.0 bolt and give them a try. I believe the length should be 30mm. You may also want to try an M10x1.25.

If you have an aftermarket downpipe, you may need to get 2 washers per bolt to space the bars downwards a little to clear the downpipe.

Also, if you want to get something that's pretty much exactly the same as the stock part get a flare-head bolt. My local TrueValue has these, but not many other places I've seen carry them.
