Default Polished Stainless Steel Bolts For Exhaust Tips

I'm replacing my Corsa silencer tips with the straight through type and need some long bolts to run through the transom. The old tips had a 3.5"-4" bolt built into them and the new tips line right up to the old holes. I have searched the web for some marine grade carriage type bolts but cannot find any long enough. They need to be 3.5"-4" long, 1/4" dia., and I would prefer 316 polished stainless. Anyone know where to find them?

When I installed my new valve covers a few years ago I bought 4 1/2" SS bolts, then ground and polished the heads of each bolt.

I used stainless boats from my local Ace for all kinds of uses, without any problems.

The raw stainless fasteners are easy to find, it's the nice, polished, show quality stuff that's hard to find.
