Wink Any Recommendations on Shinny Gold Lug Nuts?

Wsup CL
I'm currently running Project Kics R40's Neo Chromes on my wheels
I love these lugs but then again they're not the best lugs for my wheels because my hardware on the wheels are gold with red/gold caps with polished lips
I previously was just running silver Muteki lugs and they looked nicer than the R40's because they flowed better

Anyways..
Do you guys know of any gold lugs that are durable, light and also that provide some level of security?
Let me know thanks V6p

Here's an example of what color of gold I want:

These are some Gold McGuards

perhaps because what you want is not that easy to find / doesn't exist...

I do have a suggestion though... whatever lugs you want, so long as they come in chrome, can be gold plated which is pretty durable, it doesn't flake off or anything at least...

It is an easy, simple process to have done and there is most likely someone close to you that does it... I used to have the machine (nothing more than an inverter really) and chemicals for it...

If you were going to do this, aside from any chrome lugs you might have already, I've had exceptional luck with Gorilla small diameter lugs and locks... they look good and are very durable...
