Lug Nuts/Locks that match Brembo Brakes ?

I'm trying to find a set of lug nuts/locks that match, or come close to the color of brembos. I've seen plenty of red/blue/black etc. etc. Any and all help would be appreciated. Thank you

Here is a picture of a oil pan plug, the color on the right is similar. Thank you.

Gold Lug Nuts....sweet! LOL

When I wanted custom lugs for my Volks I called Chris @ F1 Motorsports.

kinds/colors of lugs 1-818-755-9800 Only deal with Chris!

anyone have any experience/opinion on these Drop Engineering gold nuts? they look like they would match the Brembos pretty well and come in an extended open end version

Only prob is they don't come with any locks

^ Matt got a set of those and they don't really match Brembos that well, a lighter when side by side.

If you're looking for open ended lugs I wouldn't bother trying to colour match, open ended you don't really see the colour of them.

I have the gold Blox open end lugs. I don't think you'll ever get an exact match but if you're going for that look, it's close enough IMO. It's like getting anodized/ionized(excuse my ignorance) red lugs to match a red gloss BBK.

Other than that, I'm still deciding if I like the overall look of it. I've only had it for day and I'm not sure if it looks good with silver face/polished lipped wheels. Not to mention gold accents on DG colored car can go wrong sometimes. ....oh and +1 prob on no wheels locks. I'll have to swap to my lug locks at night.

I'll post pics later after work.
