Black Lug nut caps?

[Bob Z.]

For a '08 Boxster S with Cayman S wheels - Porsche part or aftermarket (if so, who?). The lug nuts look like you no what and the car is new. Ideally caps that match the wheel finish would be best but I do not think there are any.

Thanks in advance...Bob Z.

Search ebay under "Black lug porsche". There are some there now for $14.99 buy-it-now. I just got some last week.

I will, thanks. Did you get yours yet and if so, do they fit the wheel lock lug as well?

They have some in the Automotion catalog but they have an * for the newer cars saying something like they will not work on the lock lug.

I would hate to buy a set and wind up with one lug exposed!

I got mine but haven't put them on yet since I am waiting on new wheels to arrive.

The caps simply press on the heads of the lug bolts. They will not fit on the locking bolt since that isn't the same six-pointed surface. I suggest simply spray painting the lock bolt heads the same satin-black color and be careful when installing them. You could always cover any scratches with paint touch-up paint or a black magic marker. I doubt anyone would notice.

Id like to see how these look installed on a twisty wheel, anyone got a pic?
