Per thread title.
FYI (it may be tricky to get them where you are; then again, it may be not if you're close to the border and in areas big on Mexican traditional music - or if you are in Mexico yourself),
these guys exist, the Eclipse Bajo Electrico - Nylon Plano Color
[ = flat nylon, colour(ed) ]
Black silk matching the black nylon tape, as can be briefly seen in the video.
But wait: they - the whole strings, that is - also come coloured (again with silk matching the nylon colour)

That these are normal nylon tapewounds, as opposed to some kind of nylon-on-nylon strings, is spelt out clearly on the packet sleeve ("Bajo Electrico" means they work on normal, magnetic-pickupped basses), as well as on the back:
"Alma de acero" ('steel soul', meaning 'steel core') / Entorche Metálico ('metal winding') / Cubierta Nylon Plano (flat nylon wrap)"
Gauges 40 - 60 - 80 - 105 (pt. no. BXC-4), plus a 125 in 5-string sets (BXC-5).
The Eclipse string company (Cuerdas Eclipse) doesn't appear to have a website; they're on Facebook, Instagram,
and maintain a shop on MercatoLibre, Inc.

[only the above-linked "Arcoiris" ("rainbow") set is currently listed].
