[QUOTE="black 10th vert, post: 10348981, member: 65729"] Well, it isn't quite as easy as a trip to your local hardware store. The heads are huge, but the threaded part of the bolts are only 6mm (from memory), so you will be stuck with a very small head on any "off the shelf" bolt. I made my own using large, stainless Acorn nuts that I polished, with polished washers. It required using thread inserts to size down the internal threads on the acorns so they would fit the correct threaded "rods" to fit the heads, though. In the end, I have the look I wanted, but it was not cheap, and took a bit of time to accomplish. [/QUOTE]
