RCScrewz.com sells vintage screw kits that are quite affordably-priced. Here's a product search for "kyosho lazer":

If your looking for the stock appearing screws, I haven't seen factory oem screw sets for Kyosho at a decent price for years. The part number was LA-58. Team associated sells metric black oxide screws in many sizes and they are a great replacement at a better price. Also check Axial and Vaterra.

Try the mini inferno screw set. They are not exact (heads are a tiny bit different) and not complete but you get a good amount. You can still get the fasteners from ebay by searching their size.

Does it have to be original as i use stainless steel hex headed screws, much strong and dont wear out as much plus look much nicer and stronger

Also if storing the car the kyosho screws start to rust so stainless steel is the best option.
