Can I buy a single lug nut cover? - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

Hi,

I'm missing a single lug nut cover on my 20-inch factory wheels on my front left wheel and it is bothering the hell out of me. Can I buy a single one somewhere? It's hard to notice it but when you do notice it, you can't stop noticing it and it's so ugly :(.

I also have factory installed wheel locks. Not sure if that matters.

Check with your dealer. Maybe the 4 they took off your car are still sitting in a box. They probably can give you all 4.

Sorry, I'm a bit of a newbie on this, is that what they do? They take off one off of each wheel to add wheel locks?

Can you post of picture of your wheels?

The factory 20's don't have lugnut covers on them. The stock lug nuts should look like this (ignore the center cap, this is from a Transformer's edition Camaro).

Sorry it's very possible that I'm not calling it the right thing. I will post pictures when I get home from work. Thanks for helping a fellow Houstonian

Here is my left front wheel. This is an SS/RS polished aluminum 20 inch wheel. The LS has 18 inch steel wheels, if that is what you have.

rolnslo · 08-10-2010, 04:09 PM

You aren't talking about something to cover the locking lug nut, are you?

bi11ymc · 08-10-2010, 04:11 PM

His profile says he drives an LS.

Yeah, I added 20 inch factory wheels though. Actually, I think what I'm missing is the thing that's suppose to cover the locking lug nut. rolnso, My wheels look just like that except it's missing the cover for the locking lug nut. Where can I find that?

rolnslo · 08-10-2010, 04:43 PM

I'm not aware of anyone that makes a locking lug nut cover for these cars. Best you can probably do is to ignore the different lug nut or replace it with a stock non-locking lug nut.

kevC · 08-10-2010, 04:59 PM

Oh bummer... maybe I'll move one from another wheel so I don't have to look at it every time I get in the car. I'm a little OCD.

kevC · 08-10-2010, 06:49 PM

Here's what it looks like.

That doesn't look like a locking lug nut and the rest aren't the stock lug nuts either. It just looks like your dealer stuck whatever lug nuts they could find on it. If you want a matching set, I'd either buy an entire new stock set from the dealer's parts department or head over to Autozone.

Are you sure? The rest of the wheels have one cover that does not look like the rest and it seems like that's the one that's missing.
