Hi all,
Im wanting to chav up my bike with some.coloured engine bolts but pro bolt is expensive anyone know an alternative? Someone did suggest enamel painting them but this will probably look cheap and naff.
Cheers

rather than looking for an "SV kit", if you find out what bolts you need you can get packs of anodised bolts for a few quid off ebay.

An alternative, but it ain't cheap either.
Hours of fun though!

When I built my last Racing Mountain Bike, I used these guys.

none of them cheap if you want good quality metal.

You can buy cheap anodised bolts but they soon fade and will look even more horrible.
You're welcome :) (http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/HUMBROL-TIN-14ml-ENAMEL-MODEL-PAINT-GLOSS-MATT-SATIN-/310324287013?pt=UK_ToysGames_ModelKits_ModelKits_J N&var=&hash=item4840c4d625)
