What color lugnuts? Where to buy?

I painted my wheels and lugnuts bronze on my wrb wagon.

The paint is holding up great, but the paint on the lugnuts chips super easy. Where can I find some black lugs? Ive seen other colors like blue and red. Or how can I repaint them so the lugs dont chip?

MachIII has Kyokugen lug nuts in different colors such as black, supposedly they're easy to strip but no problems here for nearly three years.

Don't get kyokugens. Those are the worst lug nuts lol. They strip way too easily and the actual tool bends too. My friend went through a few before switching to McGards. Those spline lugs rule.

werd, 10 sets of wheels later, and PLENTY of removing and reinstalling...no chips or blemishes on the lugs yet.
