A lot of people are just sanding their mounts and making them polished.

Here's a billet dogbone: ZZPerformance - ZZP Polished Billet Dog Bones #ZZ-BLTDB

The ZZP bones look great on the car. Zjerry has them, i'm sure there is a pic of them on the car around here somewhere.

this is the man to talk to about polishing things and how to do it!

^^^LINK^^^

read through his thread he gives details on how he polishes stuff and has pics of his work

the zzp dog bones do look really nice as well, i have a set of them on my monte. keep an eye out mainly on clubgp the zzp aluminum dog bones come up from time to time for cheaper than new ones of course.

There is shorter dog bones as well but there only needed if your really lowered.

Stock
Zzp aluminum
Shorter dog bones

I think that's the only choices....
