I'm looking for two random bolts to replace on my 400ex, I tried to detail them in the pictures below, does anybody suggest looking on here, or just hitting the dealership?

Exhaust Cover Bolt - front one is just rusted and looks bad, looking for a new one

Side Plastic Fender Screw - Black Philips Head screw that goes in the very back of the tank sides. I am missing one, if anybody has an extra that would be awesome, let me know will pay for both

I would go to ACE hardware or equivalant. Or you can buy Honda screw sets on ebay.

I tried the local hardware store and they didn't have anything close, I was hoping to go factory parts.

The screw sets I looked at on Ebay didn't seem to have the fender screws either.....thus I'm here.

Good! I'm glad to see someone did there homework! LOL! Well I guess go to the local shop but I'm warning you, when you get the bill, you might have a heart attack.

I always order my parts from ServiceHonda.com, cheaper than the dealer and I don't have to leave my house.

Figures the pictures don't work on my work computer, they are probably blocked so I'll try it when I get home.

Yeah I took one of the old bolts in and measured it with their little gauge (I think they are and M6). They were in the drawers in the hardware isle. I had to buy washers too and I put some thread lock on them when installing them.
