you might salvage a few if you're lucky!

I've got a couple hundred NOS ones at work if you do need some though

If you are refurbing them, then you can either paint over the originals (easiest option!) or replace the fake studs.

how many on each wheel? is it about 30?

Problem is it soon adds up as there's 120 of them or there abouts.
It would be about 30p per bolt or somewhere in that region.

You would be very lucky to get any out without breaking them, I know I've tried.
There is a place in USA that sells metal replacements in gold, black or chrome, I'll try and find their details, I have a note of them somewhere.
