Pudge,
My car is an S4 Elan, I bought stainless screws and polished the heads. Quite a lot of work, but I am pleased with result and there is no chrome to flake off.

Hello, like Richard if I replace a screw, I change it for a stainless steel one.I normally use Spalding fasteners.

+1 for Spalding Fasteners.
Polishing stainless is easy if you have a lathe or use an electric drill held in a vice.

Technically, you should be using Phillips head screws. Similar, but providing you know the screws are Pozi and use the correct drive you will be ok.
