Default Rear License Plate Frame and Bolts, What Options Are Out There?

So I want to get rid of the crappy flat black bolts and factory advertisement chrome license plate frame that's on the vehicle.

What's everyone using? Looking for some ideas, TIA.

I'm using a license plate protector with a chrome metal frame. The ugly bolts are covered by chrome plastic caps. You can also get the same thing in all Black if you want the more stealth look.

I don't know what "everyone" is using, but my previous black frame (from a black SC) did not look so good on my swell new red car, so I replaced it with a chrome frame to pick up on the chrome accents on the back of the car. It looks much nicer.
When you order, note that the car has conventional holes for two bolts at the top of the frame, not four, as found on some cars. Most replacement frames come with either 2 or 4 holes, so be sure to order the correct one. Generally I prefer the plastic or nylon bolts, as they will not rust into place, and the good frames come with little round covers to cover the heads of the bolts.
