The M10 120's have a 17mm head so they won't fit into the recess in the bumper brackets.

I'm surprised you're having trouble.
For some reason, on my car the bolts had been tack welded to the bumper mounts post installation. I had to grind them off (so that I could remove the mount and straighten it as it had been bent in a fender bender by PO). So I had to buy new bolts. I walked straight into a hardware chain store and found a suitable bolt in about 2 mins flat. I know that doesn't help you, but I am surprised that you're having trouble - I'm sure your hardware stores are 5 times the size of ours in Australia.
Don't forget that the length of the bolt is not critical. Because the nut secures on the inside of the trunk, there is actually a fair bit of extra room that would allow you to use a longer bolt if necessary.
