Blank Key Options

Does anybody know of some nice looking key blanks for the FR-S? Preferably without any buttons. So far all I can find is this:

http://www.autotransponder.com/2013_...chip_key_blank

But that looks pretty boring and plastic feeling.

Somewhat related -- does anyone know if it is possible to get a plain metal key (like this: http://imgur.com/iZFuTkY)? and keep a transponder key close to the ignition?

I had a car with a transponder key that broken (top broke off so it couldn't be attached to a keyring) so I taped it under the steering column and got a plain metal key copy and it worked.

Some Walmart can clone your key so you don't have to go to the dealer to get it programmed. The clones don't have they remote built in. $30-$60 each tho.

My dad had a tC key copied at WalMart that I think was somewhere in that $30-60 range.

It doesn't have the remote but still has the transponder and is still bulky. But it's a good value.

I'm looking for an option to get a high quality non bulky key, something that feels good in the fingers.
