No it won't, it should've come with 6 10mm self tappers. Did you get it from a place called strutbracer.co.uk? I got mine from ebay & they were the company who sold it.

Re: omp strut brace

you can pretty much see where it fits in bens pic

my mistake it doesnt go onto the struts(dam fancy new cars )
self tappers will be easier than bolts as you would need to get underneath with the bolts unless theres easy access either side(doubtfull)
