Wheelworx.com.au based in adelaide, they have anodised wheel nuts in lots of colours. Could be worth a call or email. Dont know how pricey they are. Website lists as price on application.

The worst business ever! took my money.... after being stuffed around for 2 months (hoping I would forget) they finally told me they never had any wheel nuts, or plans to get some.

There are plenty of drift nuts on sleezebay, I have a blue set on my falcon now but you have to get your head around using alloy wheel nuts and trust there strength. I think they are intended for offroad only use so maybe this is why they didn't want to help you.?
