Default Black lug nuts

Has anyone fitted aftermarket black lug nuts on their 22" factory wheels?
$500 for some factory black lugs seems excessive.

I noticed this Gorilla part mentioned in an old thread but not sure if it's accurate.75148RBC

This is what I got- Complete set for spare tires (18 lugs and 5 locks) . After all the tariff drama, I think eBay stopped letting us buy from them in US so I contacted them directed and purchased.

Thanks for the suggestions.
I ended up ordering the Gorillas and will report back on fitment.

I picked up a set on Ebay last year for only $32 from a seller in California.

I was curious on that one. How's the quality? And do you mind sharing some pictures of actual lugs?

I received the Gorilla lugs today and they fit perfectly. Ordered a set of 25 off eBay for $114 delivered. No locks with this set which was ok with me.

They fit perfectly. Not sure if they scratch easily, or if it was just the shop that did my calipers that scratched a few of them. They're not as glossy as my wheels, but for ~$30, I don't mind and would definitely get them again.

Here's a closeup of the Gorilla lug. As good or better than OEM.

I wonder if one can powder coat or paint the original ones in a different color? Has anyone tried that?
