It really matters how low you want to go and what type of ride quality you want, so you can do any of the things you listed above.
As for me, I removed my front bolts completely and cut off 2 of the 3 bushings on each side of the bolt in the rear.

Anyway, it's like Pete says, it really all depends on how low you want to go and the quality of your ride. If you're a daily driver I wouldn't suggest more than lowering on the stock bolts unless you spend the big bucks for a coilover setup.
