I am finding wheel locking hub “kits,” and others that don’t say “kit,” which I am uncertain which I need. Currently my 4x4 works, however I am replacing the old hubs for aesthetics purposes and because part of the dial on one side is broke. Any suggestions? Also I prefer black parts and am acceptable to red accents.
The lockouts I would have recommended a few years ago were the SuperWinch locking hubs. Unsurpassed value with all of the toughness of the Warn lock-outs. Unfortunately these were discontinued and we are left with Warn and some lesser brands.
The "kits" likely have the spindle nuts required if you're taking automatic hubs out and putting manual hubs in. You wouldn't need that if you're replacing manual with manual.
I really like the gold Warns. I think it's their heavy duty line. Never used them, but they look sharp. Can you just paint yours? Hubs are expensive to change just for aesthetics.

That sucks. I wish I bough several sets to have stock on the shelf. It was hard to beat the quality and price of them. Warn is SO OVERPRICED its not even funny

I assumed cost isn't an issue, since OP is replacing functioning hubs because he doesn't like the color. Not that there's anything wrong with that; it's his pickup. It just doesn't make me think he's worried about spending money.
I personally regard Warn as top-tier. Sure you pay for it, but their reliability is proven and their customer service is the best I've ever encountered.

Warn standard ones are the the identical ones he has but with black ****($262). The Premium ones have the brass ****($300).
Both are overprice for what you are getting when. I have yet to break a set of super winch ones in 30 plus years of truck pulling That were $100
