Put the protective booties on there. They will probably never notice that they are rod ends on an UCA.
Now, the Hotchkis tie rods that are rod end...not really sure about being able to hide those. I am not running those. With that being said my Hotchkis sway bars, UCAs, and subframe connectors were nice pieces. Car drives amazing now.
We have booties for the end links too. Makes them "look" like a standard ball joint.
