Aftermarket Mag Type Lugs for Stock Wheels (custom machined?)

I find it both understandable and refuse to accept there is not a single aftermarket quality lug nut for stock infiniti fitment.
I really want some nice lugs for my 2009 refinished sport wheels!

I imagine the market for expensive lugs on stock wheels is not lucrative but in this day and age of consumption, almost anything can be found.
I do have a full large and small fabrication shop at my disposal. I am the managing engineer at a full service engineering and fabrication plant.

Soooo, before i endeavor to model some custom lugs
Anyone ever come across anything available for flat mag type after market lugs (excluding the amazon and ebay OEM type)

If not, ideas for a run of custom lugs? I havent really put much thought into this but the idea leaves open a world of possibilities for material, color, design, etc...

Can't argue the point that the aftermarket is virtually non existent when it comes to upscale mag-style lug nuts, hell, even finding them in black is a chore. Would be interesting to see what designs you may have in store.

Ive done no research into making them myself yet.
If anyone has raw stock suggestions (material and form), 3D models, or design references, I'm all ears.

We have a product we use hex stock for. Just need to do some engineering related research into proper material to use.
Design and machining is the easy part i presume.

I downloaded a model to start playing with.
