You can order tpm sensors on amazon or your local tire installer will have them. As far as the wheel weights, just do inside the wheel tape weights. No weights visible on the outside of the wheel, and no steel clips to chew up the wheel paint either.

Both Amazon and Ebay sell black stick on wheel weights by the case load. Me personally since it takes a decent little pile to counter balance the TPMS sensors I usually just paint the weights with rustoleum in black to camouflage them.

As for the sensors, IIRC his car is an 02? You should still be able to find some factory sensors out there online from amazon or rock auto.

Here's where you can buy TMPS sensors imexpensively- especially compared to OEM for 97-2000.
I researched everywhere and finally found 24/7 TPMS.
On line. I paid $25 each for my 98 and they work perfectly. And they have black too.

I have a message that tells me my TPM system needs service. My Left rear reading is blank. Does this likely mean I just need a new sensor in the wheel? 2000 C5
or is there some other trouble shooting I can do?
Thanks
