Sounds like you should have done some more reasearch before you purchased. But it can easily be remidied by just going to your local hardware store and buying acouple bolts. You cant really be upset at Quadratec, they didnt design the Mopar kit, they just sell it.
Have a beer and everything will be OK.
PS
Which replacement mirrors did you buy? I know the HighRock 4x4 Replacement Mirrors dont come with extra bolts either and specifically state to reuse the stock bolts. "Use a T40 Torx driver to remove the two (2) bolts that secure each of the old mirrors. Set the bolts aside to install the HighRock 4x4™ Replacement Mirrors."
Also the Mopar Replacement Mirros state "OE Mirror Sleaves Must Be Reused."

I called my local dealer for you. The bolts you need are M8x50mm.
You can pick some up at Lowes. They are $4.29 for 12 of them. If that is too expensive, go to your local Post Office and you can get a Mover's Coupon in the change of address packet.... dropping the price to $3.86. If that is still too much, PM your paypal and I will send you the $3.86.

Not mad at Quadratec, but I did do lots of research for months, you don't find this out til you make purchase and find things are missing.
The replacement mirrors are MOPAR mirrors, so $220 for mirrors with no bolts and $1250 for door "Kit" with no bolts.

I can definatly understand your frustration. I would hate to come out of pocket that much only to find out they cheaped out on 4 bolts. But I hope you get them mounted soon. Put up a picture when your done.
I do have to ask though, why not just save the money and swap the mirror from your full doors to half doors?
