Default Options for strut bolts?

I am wondering what cool options are available for the rear fender strut bolts?
I have the stock ones in there now but want something nicer when I put the new tins on.
Post pics if you have them.

You could always get the chrome ones from the dealer.

Dupli paint at your local auto parts store, if you want to match contrast or if you want chrome you buy them. The chrome bolts that are showing in my sig pic have black magnetic caps that go over those, I just forgot to put them on for the pic. I have since painted the two chrome windshield mounts on the upper forks also.
