Ruf sells the old black bolt set that fits on the 997. Someone mentioned it on here before.

Look in the yellow pages in your area for "ceramic coating" or just "coatings". I had mine ceramic coated black and it worked out fine. You could also have them powder coated, but it might not be as durable plus it may cost more due to the process. My ceramic coating cost was $60 for all 20 bolts.

Call Wheel Enhancement on Monday. Even though they may not listed on their web site I'm pretty sure they'll have a source or supplier for you.

You have to call Ralph Boothe personally. He can do it for you.

I think it's a very clever idea and plan on getting them at the hardware store this week.

I think Ruf offers studs and lug nuts, not the bolts. Boothe does too.

I had mine powder coated in Tampa. Just make sure you get a soft socket. Mine are a few years old now and are starting to show a little wear due to shops not using the soft socket I supplied. Grrrr. It's really cheap have them PC'd though.

This is a sweet idea. Never even thought about it. I just don't know about the 'hold up' though. I mean, at the track last weekend I had my wheels off 4 times adjusting my sway bars all around.
