Default Hose clamps

What are the options for hose clamps? The regular band/screw type are okay looking if they're carefully sized (and perhaps have the tag end trimmed and refinished).

The two-wire type used on original Mustangs are nice, but they're hard to find in more than one or two sizes, and seem to be all coated steel that eventually rusts. Stainless would be nice.

The Spectre faux hose-end clamps are the only ones I know of that pretend to be attractive, and there's something JC-Whitney about them. I used a couple on my new PCV installation and can't decide if they look right or not.

What options are there for hose clamps that would look right on a Cobra?
