Anyway, I finally decided to fix it. Bought some replacement braces from BimmerWorld, had them powder coated gloss black, and just finished the swap. This is my daily driver so I couldn't just pull the original ones off.
Here's the before and after. I think it looks much better and the car should have come this way to begin with.

Where did you purchase the new rods that were powder coated ?
