I had a set of Red Gorilla Lug Nuts (same ole' spline drive lug nuts that most people use). They didn't fade, but the colored finish comes off very quickly if you use an impact gun to remove them. The chrome finished lug nuts will do the same as well if not careful.

Mike did a set of Lugs for Daisuke's Z a while back. They used an internal socket as opposed to the traditional OUTSIDE socket style. That style lug nut could be powdercoated all over and not be at such a risk of damaging the finish.

+1 on NO aftermarket lugs on OEM wheels. The new model stuff uses a flat seat type, where most domestic and aftermarket wheels use a conical seat.
