Titanium /
Chrome /
Stainless
It'll take me longer to write this post than it did to find those links through Google.
I'm changing all of my crappy stripped phillips for black sockets. Sockets look really good and have far and away the best bite but if you want to go with chrome don't get them... they will rust inside. I would go with stainless wherever you can. Keep in mind that SS is very hard and therefore brittle and are consequently not to be used where they will experiance a lot of heavy sheering forces such as suspention areas.
Also if you go with TI it's advisable to liberaly use some kind of threadlock or anti seize because they have a reputation of welding themselves in place over time without something between the female and male thread.
I just get all mine locally at B&A.

I would google that topic.
Their is a guy on eBay that sells bolt kits for most to all bikes.
I bought a stainless Allen head kit off of him for my SL350.
I believe it was some where around $25.00 for the kit.
Every thing seemed to fit well and almost every bolt that could be seem was in the kit.

the screws are all different, and way to specail to just search for a similar one. they need to be real replacement screws for the model. and anyone can google. i was thinking someone would have found somewhere really good over the years they have been working on motorcycles.
