Default Question on Chrome ZR1s

I took my car to a local shop to get an alignment, and they destroyed one of the plastic caps that go over the lug nuts. Since they do a lot of stuff for me for free, I told them not to worry about it. My question is, can I go to my dealer and order one of these? All I need is one. I really don't want to order one from SLP and pay shipping ect. What can I do?

Ah the old, "Try to put on the black lug nut caps with an air gun." Hah, I work at a GM dealer, I see it all the time. Any parts department should carry them, they are kind of expensive but if you only need one I say go for it.

Another option is to cheack out the chrome wheel lug and lock accessory kit we sell. Then you don't need to use those crappy caps anymore.

he's not talking about the center caps. He's talking about the lugnut covers.
